| Abstract: | Thirty commercial soyabean fields situated in the Lublin region of Poland were surveyed between 1994 and 1996 to determine the fungal species which infect soyabean in this region. Six-week-old soyabean seedlings of varieties such as Aldana, Nawiko, Polan and Progress, were sampled at anthesis. In each year the degree of plant infection and an infection index were recorded. The infected roots and the base of seedling stems and the plants sampled at anthesis were analysed mycologically. In addition, samples of the seeds intended for sowing, as well as those harvested in the study area were also tested for fungi. The results showed that the roots and stem base of soyabean cultivated in the Lublin region, are infected by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. glycines, F. solani, F. culmorum, Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Botrytis cinerea and Pythium debaryanum. The roots and stem base of soyabean seedlings were most frequently infected by R. solani and F. solani, while the plants at anthesis were mainly infected by F. oxysporum f.sp. glycines. |
