Abstract:Bipolaris sorokiniana, a barley pathogen, can infect via seeds, co-growing plants, or soil, causing yield and seed value reductions. This study aimed to assess B. sorokiniana’s impact at various growth stages on seed yield and quality. Results showed no direct impact on yield (which ranged from 0.49 kg·m−2 for the naked variety Rastik to 0.77 kg·m−2 for the Widawa variety), but revealed significant seed quality differences. Thousand kernel weight (TKW) and germination capacity (GC) varied notably between exami… Show more
