Abstract

The field experiment with artificial infection of panicles of 15 oat genotypes was performed in 2014, in southeastern Poland. Panicles were inoculated with conidial suspension of Fusarium equiseti no. 20. The mean reduction in the number of kernels per panicle was 45.7% (from 15.8 to 66.7%), in kernel yield — 47.7% (from 20.3 to 69.3%), and 1000 kernel weight — 7.3% (from 0.5 to 22.8%). Trichothecenes of group A and B were detected in oat kernels. The concentration of T-2 toxin ranged from 0.001 to 0.044 mg·kg-1, HT- 2 toxin from 0.001 to 0.081 mg·kg-1, scirpentriol (STO) from 0.002 to 0.056 mg·kg-1, T-2 tetraol from 0.001 to 0.152 mg·kg-1. In kernels of 14 oat genotypes diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS) and T-2 triol were found and concentration of these metabolites ranged from 0.001 to 0.005 mg·kg-1 and from 0.001 to 0.008 mg·kg-1, respectively. Additionally in the infected kernels the following trichothecenes of group B were detected: DON (0.000-0.233 mg·kg-1), 3-Ac - DON (0.023-0.026mg·kg-1), and NIV (0.000-0.218 mg·kg-1).
