About
Grains Research and Development Corporation awarded a contract to DPIRD for investigating the 2024 season outbreaks of flag smut in wheat and loose smut in barley across Western Australia’s grain belt.
The contract focused on understanding the persistence of loose smut as dormant mycelium within infected seed and flag smut spread through contaminated soil, despite seed treatments and hygiene practices.
This contract highlights ongoing challenges in managing seed-borne and soil-borne diseases in Australian grain production, emphasizing the need for integrated disease management strategies beyond chemical treatments.
