Fusarium  Head Blight (FHB), caused by Fusarium spp., has become one of the most destructive diseases in the world’s wheat growing areas, especially in humid and semihumid regions. More precise data relating the effects of FHB on yield have been obtained using inoculated trials. The situation is totally changed by inoculation with Fusarium. Because this disease affected wheat in flowering stage, number of grain/spike is strongly diminished. It can be observed the behavior of Turda 95 and Dumbrava varieties created at ARDS Turda which lose less number of grain than other cultivars.
