The rapesseed<br />

crop is <strong>of</strong> o high impoortance<br />

for European E agr riculture and has increase ed its<br />

potential<br />

in <strong>the</strong> EU during <strong>the</strong> la ast years. In <strong>2011</strong> <strong>the</strong> EU U-27 cultivated<br />

nearly 11.2<br />

million ha h <strong>of</strong><br />

oilseeds.<br />

Almost 6.88<br />

million ha <strong>of</strong> o this area wwere<br />

cultivat ted with rape eseed. Rapeseeed<br />

producti ion is<br />

forecast at 19.1 million<br />

t. This is in line wwith<br />

last five years avera age but muchh<br />

lower than n <strong>the</strong><br />

productiion<br />

in 2010 (- 6.3 %). At A EU-27 levvel<br />

<strong>the</strong> yield forecast is lo ower than thhose<br />

in 2010 0 (2.9<br />

t/ha; - 2.4<br />

%). Followwing<br />

<strong>the</strong> goo od harvest <strong>of</strong>f<br />

2010, Germ man farmers could only aachieve<br />

very y low<br />

yields inn<br />

<strong>2011</strong>, whiich<br />

were 23. .7 % lower than <strong>the</strong> year<br />

In th he early flow wering cvs thhe<br />

emergenc ce rate <strong>of</strong><br />

neww-generation<br />

beetles was lower than iin<br />

<strong>the</strong> late flo owering cvs. . The populaation<br />

confirmed by semi-<br />

fieldd<br />

experimentts<br />

including early e and latee<br />

cvs tend ded to be<br />

prefferred<br />

high her larval densities<br />

In conntrast,<br />

on hyb brid cvs <strong>the</strong> emergence rate r <strong>of</strong> new-g generation beeetles<br />

was lo ower than<br />

cvs, indiicating<br />

density-dependennd<br />

effects on<br />

larval fitn ness and moortality<br />

<strong>of</strong> larvae<br />

and<br />

Our results sugggest<br />

that <strong>the</strong> coincidencee<br />

between ad dult immigration<br />

and <strong>the</strong> time <strong>of</strong> flow wering is<br />

one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> main factors regulating<br />

<strong>the</strong> poopulation<br />

at delaye ed beetle imm migration, thhe<br />

time avai ilable for<br />

Abstract:<br />

Blacklegg<br />

is a serious<br />

global ddisease<br />

<strong>of</strong> cr rucifers. It is i caused byy<br />

two patho ogens<br />

Leptosphhaeria<br />

macuulans<br />

and L. biglobosa. In <strong>the</strong> Czec ch Republic, canola and oilseed rape e are<br />

attackedd<br />

each seasoon<br />

and yield loses can bbe<br />

20 %. To o help grow wers protect <strong>the</strong>ir crops from<br />

blacklegg<br />

attack, prediction<br />

syste em are used d to help targ get fungicide e applicationns<br />

in some o<strong>the</strong>r o<br />

countriees<br />

in Europe (Poland, UK K). In 20088,<br />

<strong>the</strong> Czech Ministry <strong>of</strong> Agriculture commission ned a<br />

project ( (QH81127) tto<br />

develop a forecasting system to help h oilseed rape r growerss<br />

At t five<br />

This data along with<br />

<strong>of</strong> ooilseed<br />

h ous parasitoiids.<br />

One <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> most<br />

abunndant<br />

parasiitoids<br />

in win nter oilseed rape is Tersilochus<br />

he eterocerus TThomson<br />

1889.<br />

This<br />

speccies<br />

is knownn<br />

to be attrac cted by long-distance<br />

vol latiles from oilseed o rape iin<br />

<strong>the</strong> bud an nd flower<br />

stage<br />

(Jönsson 22005).<br />

However,<br />

once a parasitoid lands on th he inflorescen ence, it still needs to<br />

locaate<br />

its host larrva.<br />

The aim <strong>of</strong> this study was to o examine hhow<br />

parasitoi id females re eact to odour urs from livin ng pollen<br />

if <strong>the</strong>re is any a preferennce<br />

(1 - 1,5 mmm),<br />

b) inte ermediate sta age (2 - 2,5 mmm),<br />

Both qualittative<br />

resistance <strong>of</strong> oilseed ra ape (OSR). Several mon nogenic resistance<br />

geness<br />

are known n and<br />

widely uused<br />

in commmercial<br />

Recenntly,<br />

a few cultivars c were<br />

introducedd<br />

into <strong>the</strong> market<br />

possessiing<br />

<strong>the</strong> neww<br />

monogenic c resistance gene Rlm7 7, which has s been showwn<br />

to be hi ighly<br />

effectivee.<br />

However, monogenic resistance r is vulnerable to t being over rcome by <strong>the</strong>e<br />

developme ent <strong>of</strong><br />

virulent fungal popuulations.<br />

Thi is process mmay<br />

rely on <strong>the</strong> selection n <strong>of</strong> virulentt<br />

isolates alr ready<br />

present in <strong>the</strong> popullation<br />

at low w frequenciess,<br />

but also on o avirulence e genes whicch<br />

They were w followeed<br />

by inocula ations with a virulent L. maculans isolate<br />

A mock pre-inoculati<br />

Differennt<br />

to check for local and<br />

Local efffects<br />

were stu udied by inooculating<br />

bot th isolates at t <strong>the</strong> same pllace<br />

or each on a<br />

separatee<br />

half <strong>of</strong> a cootyledon.<br />

Systemic<br />

were stud died by inocu ulating aviruulent<br />

isolates on differentt<br />

cotyledons <strong>of</strong> a single plant. Both h lesion area a and qualitaative<br />

assessm ments<br />

considerring<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> e pathogen were cond ducted. For this purposse<br />

we used d <strong>the</strong><br />

Results clearly demmonstrate<br />

ef fficacy <strong>of</strong> RRlm7<br />

Lesion siz zes were aboout<br />

50 times smaller com mpared to L. . maculans avr7- a<br />

controls.<br />

Also no spporulation<br />

was w observedd<br />

within <strong>the</strong>s se lesions aft ter 18 days post inocula ation.<br />

Results <strong>of</strong> combinedd<br />

inoculation ns showed cclear<br />

effects only if isola ates were inooculated<br />

in close c<br />

This wass<br />

true for both<br />

L. maculan ns or<br />

L. biglobbosa.<br />

This effect<br />

if <strong>the</strong>re waas<br />

a time gap p <strong>of</strong> 4 days bbetween<br />

and inoculattion.<br />

This va ariant<br />

also shoowed<br />

Lower effects e were recorded wwhen<br />

Sligh ht effects wwere<br />

These reesults<br />

that Rlm7 R may bee<br />
