Integrating Control strategies Against soil-borne Rhizoctonia solani in OilSeed rape (ICAROS)

立枯丝核菌(Rhizoctonia Solani)是一种侵袭性很强的土传油菜(OSR)和油菜(Canola)病原菌。它与作物在田间轮作中频繁种植时的产量下降有关。目前还没有抗病品种，因此对该病的控制依赖于使用化学种子处理。该项目的主要目标是确定可用于作物育种的对纹枯病菌的新抗性性状和基因座，以及可在OSR中注册并向英国种植者提供商业可用的有效种子处理方法。这一多学科项目的最终成果将是第一个综合防治纹枯病菌的指南，其中包括有针对性的种子处理和品种抗性，以改进疾病管理和保护OSR产量。

Rhizoctonia solani is an aggressive soil-borne pathogen of oilseed rape (OSR) and canola worldwide. It is implicated in the yield decline of the crop when grown with increased frequency in field rotations.Presently there are no disease resistant varieties, hence the control of the disease relies on the use of chemical seed treatment. The key objectives of this project are to identify novel resistance traits and loci to R. solani which can be utilised in crop breeding and effective seed treatments that can be registered against the pathogen in OSR and made commercially available to UK growers. The ultimate output of this multidisciplinary project will be the first integrated guidelines for the control of R. solani incorporating targetted seed treatments and varietal resistance for improved disease management and protection of OSR yield.
