Abstract

This research is dedicated to a comprehensive investigation of the impact of common root rot on spring durum wheat under various soil and climatic conditions of Kazakhstan. The research employed modern phytopathological assessment methods, including field, laboratory, and molecular-genetic analyses. Field experiments were conducted in 2024 at two locations (Almaty and Aktobe regions) using a three-factor design: plant growth stages (tillering, harvesting), infection backgrounds (fungicidal, artificial, natural), and 14 wheat varieties 4 lines.

The research focuses on evaluating the effects of common root rot on spring durum wheat in the conditions of Kazakhstan. It was found that the degree of plant infection significantly depended on the growth stage: the highest incidence (51.25%) and disease development (13.78%) were recorded at the harvest stage. The application of fungicides demonstrated high effectiveness, reducing infection by 47% compared to the artificial infection background. Significant varietal differences in resistance were identified: Gordeyforme 254 (20.00%), Yantarnaya 160 (25.71%), and line 248/255 (21.43%) exhibited the lowest susceptibility, while the highest infection levels were observed in the varieties Serke (40.00%) and Yantarnaya 150 (37.14%). The disease had a negative impact on productivity: under the artificial infection background, stem length decreased by 14.6%, spike length by 12%, and grain weight by 9.8%. The highest grain yields were maintained by the varieties Kargala 69 (15.93 g), No. 512 (L-3599; 15.93 g), and No. 545 (Tselinnitsa; 15.33 g).

The results of this research have practical importance for breeding resistant varieties and developing an effective protection system for spring durum wheat in Kazakhstan.
