“…Because G. avenacea was isolated in 17.2% of our samples, the same effect could be influencing the levels of mycotoxins produced by F. culmorum and G. zeae that we detected. Sowing in late autumn results in earlier wheat development and ripening as compared with spring sowing (Wenda-Piesik et al 2016). In current study, sowing season also impacted both of these disease characteristics, with higher intensity for spring sowings.…”

We investigated incidences of Fusarium head blight (FHB) and concentrations of six mycotoxins (deoxynivalenol, nivalenol, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol, T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin and zearalenone) in wheat from 2010 to 2013. Field trials were conducted at the Experimental Station of Cultivar Testing in Chrząstowo, Poland (53 o 11'N, 17 o 35'E). We examined the effects of four agronomic factors, including pre-crop type (corn, sugar beets and wheat), date of sowing (late autumn: November 8-December 9 or spring: March 29-April 19), fungicidal application (untreated or treated with two applications) and cultivar (Monsun, Cytra), on FHB index (FHBi) and mycotoxin levels in order to minimize the risk of wheat grain contamination by mycotoxins via integrated pest management methods. The dominant Fusarium species observed on wheat heads were F. culmorum, F. avenaceum (Gibberella avenacea) and F. graminearum (Gibberella zeae), at 21.1%, 17.2% and 7.1%, respectively. A monthly rainfall sum of 113.9 mm and a relatively low air temperature (monthly average 15.5°C) resulted in the highest FHBi in untreated wheat (25.1%). Agronomic factors crucial for the FHB incidence were the pre-crop, fungicidal treatments and cultivar selection. In wheat planted after wheat or corn, the FHBi was higher compared with a precrop of sugar beet. A double application of fungicides at BBCH 30-32 with prothioconazole and spiroxamine and at a BBCH 65 with fluoxastrobin and prothioconazole effectively reduced the FHBi and mycotoxin concentrations, respectively, in grain. The cultivar 'Cytra' had a greater FHBi (10.4%) than 'Monsun' (4.6%), and grain infestations by Fusarium species were also greater in 'Cytra', at 16.5%, than in 'Monsun', at 11.2%. Untreated cv. Cytra grown after corn in spring produced grains with the highest amounts of the mycotoxins, deoxynivalenol, 103, 17.5 and 5.53 μg/kg, respectively). Total mycotoxin levels in wheat were correlated with five determinants: duration of the period between the end of flowering and the beginning of kernel abscission, FHBi, F. culmorum isolation, G. zeae isolation and Fusarium ratio (FR) as a % of total mould isolations. Although, the mean concentration of mycotoxins in grain did not exceed the maximum permissible values for unprocessed wheat our study suggests necessity to monitor and mitigate FHB risk for susceptible cultivars, when wheat spring sowing follows corn or wheat.

“…The material for the potassium (K) concentration analyses was subjected to mineralization in concentrated sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ) and perchloric acid (HClO 4 ), whilst the material for zinc (Zn) and manganese (Mn) concentration analyses was digested in a mixture of nitric acid (HNO 3 ) and perchloric acid (HClO 4 ). An Atomic Absorption Spectrometer (ASA) apparatus (iCE 3000 Series, Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used to determine potassium (K) by means of emulsion flame spectroscopy, and zinc (Zn) and manganese (Mn) by means of absorption flame spectroscopy.…”

“…Among cereals, wheat growth dominates at 28.6%. In 2016, the wheat sowing area in Poland reached almost 2.1 million ha, including winter wheat with 1.4 million ha (66.1%) and spring wheat with over 704 thousand ha (33.9%) [4].…”

Effect of Habitat and Foliar Fertilization with K, Zn and Mn on Winter Wheat Grain and Baking Qualities

Cereal monoculture causes a series of unfavorable changes in field habitat, for example a decrease in technological quality and yield. This system can lead to a shortage of microelements in the diet of poor communities. Moreover, breeding of highly productive plants caused a significant "dilution effect" of the necessary nutrients, such as Zn and Fe. The aim of this work was to determine the effect of two strategies: crop rotation (after rapeseed and many years of monoculture of Galega orientalis Lam.) and foliar fertilization with microelements on the yield, yield elements, physical quality, and farinograph characteristics of winter wheat grain and flour. Results showed that pre-crop preparation and cultivation year have the highest effect on yield, yield components, and qualitative and farinographic characteristics of winter wheat. Foliar additional feeding favorably affected the yield and its components, although the particular fertilization treatment did not significantly increase the yield. Grain quality, its physical characteristics and the rheological parameters of flour were strongly modified by habitat conditions, including weather conditions. Dough obtained from wheat grown after galega showed significantly higher water absorption and prolonged consistency.Zn content. Its consumption in rural areas will probably increase to over 70%, which could lead to an increase in the micronutrient shortage in communities with poor resources [10]. Cereals provide up to 52% of the daily requirement for Zn. Biofortification is a process of plant growth that generates high microelement content through traditional breeding or modern biotechnology. It has been stated that Zn concentration in intensively cultivated soils oscillates between 20 and 35 mg kg −1 , and may be significantly below that level when wheat is grown in soils poor in zinc [11,12]. In the case of wheat grain, Zn bioavailability reaches about 25% of that amount, which is related to the presence of anti-nutritional factors, such as phitynians and the lack of promoter substances in the grain [13].Approximately 30% of the population in developing countries, and about 10% of Americans and Canadians, suffer from Zn shortages [14]. It is estimated that 17.3% of the entire world population is at risk of inadequate Zn consumption, and Zn shortage leads to an estimated annual death rate of 433,000 children under the age of 5 [15]. It was recently found that in Great Britain, Zn consumption in about a quarter of teenagers is lower than the Lower Reference Nutrient Intake (LRNI).There are numerous strategies for improving the intake of micronutrients with plant-based diets and bolstering the condition of plant nourishment in order for microelements to reach food, such as rice diversification, mineral supplementation, enrichment after harvest and bio-diversification [16]. Plant breeding (for example genetic biofortification) and Zn fertilizer application (for example agronomic biofortification) are two important agricultural tools for improving Zn concentration in ...

“…Three varieties (Tybalt, Monsun, Bombona) used in own research were also the object of other studies, which were aimed at assessing their suitability for autumn sowing [10]. The authors stated that the tested genotypes can be considered potentially optional, and the yield of grain from autumn sowing was 20.8 % higher than from spring sowing.…”

Two forms of wheat are cultivated in Poland: winter and spring. At the same time, the spring form is much less popular, which results mainly from its lower yields. A very important advantage of spring wheat is its higher quality of grain than of winter wheat, although it should be emphasized that this fact is now less important than in the past decades. At the end of the 20th century, some Polish cereal growers began to advertise their spring cultivars as suitable also for autumn sowing. This prompted field experiments to be carried out in several research centers to check this trait for the cultivars indicated by the growers. Field tests were carried out in three
