Strategies and prospects of utilizing pesticides to control Fusarium crown rot on wheat in China
In recent years,Fusarium crown rot(FCR)has become increasingly severe in China and pose a serious threat to the safe production of wheat.Effective management measures for this disease are urgently needed.At present,pesticide application represents the most convenient and economical approach to control FCR.The research progress of the FCR control technology of application of chemical pesticides and biological pesticides were reviewed in this paper.On these basises,it was proposed that the selection and utilization of resistant cultivars should be promoted,and scientific cultivation of wheat should be implemented,the research on monitoring and early warning systems of FCR should be strengthened,the development of controlled release formulations of pesticides should be intensified,the efficient utility of combination of fungicides and insecticides should be paid more attention to,and the development of specific application equipment should be strengthened in the future,which means that integrated management of FCR should be strengthened by combined utility of multiple measurements.It was expected to lay scientific foundation for the efficient managements of FCR of wheat in China.
