Identifying Fusarium Head Blight Symptoms in Spring Wheat

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a complex and potentially devastating disease for Manitoba farmers. Identifying field areas with high levels of FHB infection and Fusarium-damaged kernels (FDK) is important when making harvest management decisions. Recognizing FHB symptoms is key to identifying infected wheat heads, but first, we need to identify the parts of a wheat head to properly make disease assessments. Premature bleaching of wheat heads and spikelets. Orange-pink sporulation or white/orange superficial fungal growth on the seams of glumes and spikelets. Dark purple-brown discolouration of the stem right below the wheat head (peduncle). White, chalky and shrivelled kernels (i.e., FDK). There are many diseases and abiotic stresses that can be confused with FHB infection and we saw an excellent example of this in 2024. Farmers and agronomists were finding wheat heads that had a salmon-pink colour on spikelets and glumes.The affected wheat heads were empty or had only a few shrivelled
