Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 March 2009
Extract
1. The occurrence of stripe smut of rye, Urocystis occulta (Wallr.) Rab. in Great Britain is recorded.
2. Control of seed-borne infection by disinfecting seed prior to sowing with an approved organomercury seed disinfectant has been shown.
3. Experiments have confirmed that the disease may be soil-borne.
4. With the increase of the acreage of rye grown in Great Britain it is suggested that seed should be treated with an approved organo-mercury seed disinfectant as a preventive measure.
