Abstract
Chemical seed dressing is nowadays the most frequently applied measure to reduceyield losses through infection of seed and seedlings by pathogens. One possible alternative toeliminate seedborne pathogens on and in seeds are thermal processes. Winter wheat seedartificially infected with Fusarium culmorum was treated with hot water, hot air and microwaveradiation. The results show that a complete destruction of the pathogen while preservinggermination is feasible with all processes. However microwave treatment in particular, owing tovery short application periods and dispensable redrying, provides an interesting alternative.
