Bunt management (Tilletia caries)
During a cross-visit in Italy in summer 2019, LIVESEED’s partner Rete Semi Rurali interviewed Anders Borgen from Agrologica (DK) about common bunt management. The result is a comprehensive overview of the issues and best practices around this seedborne disease.

AGES Online-Feldtag “Fuchsenbigl”- Vortrag Thueringer // Projekt „Liveseed“ Versuch Weizensteinbrand
This video shows the field trial of AGES in Austria 2020 which was set up to test the efficiency of different organic seed treatments against Tilletia caries on winter wheat. The tested seed treatments were Cerall (correctly stored), Cerall (incorrectly stored – as this is a critical point in practice) and white vinegar compared to chemical and no seed treatment. The trial was set up with five infection levels (10, 50, 150, 300 and 500 Spores/Kernel) and two winter wheat varieties (Bernstein, Capo) in threefold repetition.

White Lupin Resistance Breeding – Anthracnose screening
The grain legume white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) is a promising local alternative for imported soybean in Europe because of its high protein content, which is perfect for the food and feed industry. However, white lupin is almost not being cultivated because of anthracnose disease, caused by the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum lupini which causes severe yield loss.
In this video, FiBL presents a fast screening system to identify anthracnose resistance in white lupin.
