SUMMARY During 1970 and 1971 six systemic fungicides were compared as seed dressings and sprays against foliage and root diseases of cereals. The fungicides differed greatly in effectiveness against mildew, loose smut, rusts and eyespot but none controlled take‐all. Effects were also noted on germination, seedling growth and leaf‐surface microflora.
