Investigating Hybrid Interactions with Nitrogen and Foliar Fungicides
IPNI-2010-CAN-ON30
07 Jun 2010
Objectives
- To characterize a sampling of commercial hybrids (single vs multiple traits; susceptible vs tolerant foliar disease) by fungicide response, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), and their interactions
- To determine whether hybrids respond differently to leaf disease control only (Headline and Proline) and physiological effects (Headline only)
- To develop hybrid screening tools for NUE
- To develop the tools for more accurate foliar fungicide decisions
