Abstract
The effect of seed dressing with the antagonist Streptomyces griseoviridis on root rots and yields of wheat and barley was studied in field experiments. In long-term field experiments, where different levels of soil-borne inoculum of root rots were maintained with different crop sequences, seed treatment with the antagonist increased yields slightly on average over all experimental years. However, variations between years, crops and crop sequences were considerable. The highest yield increases were in excess of 600 kg/ha, whilst treatment occasionally resulted in slight yield losses. In experiments in which seed naturally infested with Fusarium spp. was used, seed treatment with S. griseoviridis increased yields of wheat but not those of barley. Seed dressing with an organomercurial fungicide resulted in higher yield increases than the biopreparate.
