Abstract

Nine Fusarium graminearum isolates were investigated for their pathogenicity on wheat ears and zearalenone production. The investigated isolates originated from different geographical regions and included representatives of Group 1 and Group 2 of F. gramineraum species. Among these isolates significant differences in pathogenicity were found. Groups 1 and 2 included isolates with higher and lower pathogenicity. 44,4% of the isolates produced zearalenone in artificially infected wheat grains at concentrations ranging from 203 to 431 µg/kg. Isolates of both groups are capable of zearalenone synthesis.
