The effect of barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) on the development of net blotch (Pyrenophora eves) and leaf blotch (Rhynchosporium secalis) was examined on seven barley cuitivars. Seedlings were infected with BYDV at the two‐leaf stage (G.S. 12). Their susceptibility to three isolates of p teres and isolates of two races (U.K. 1, U.K. 2) of R. secalis was examined at the four‐leaf stsge (G.S. 14) and when plants were more mature (G.S. 33/38). At G.S. 14 numbers of lesions produced by P. teres and R. secalis were reduced, on average, by 37 and 72% respectively, and at G.S. 33/38 by 61 and 74%.
