Özet
Wheat (Triticum spp.) is the third most important crop in terms of global production, with an
average annual production of almost 219 million ha and yielding 760.9 million tons, after
maize and rice. However, A complex of fungi attacking the crown and root tissues of wheat
causes a serious problem and significant yield reductions in wheat. Although most prevailing
species in this complex can change yearly and regionally in dryland winter wheat production
areas, Bipolaris sorokiniana Shoemaker (teleomorph: Cochliobolus sativus) is one of the
dominant species and causes spot blotch and common root rot (CRR) on wheat plants,
especially in winter wheat varieties. Comprehensive surveys were conducted to identify B.
sorokiniana associated with CRR of wheat throughout the main wheat-growing areas of
Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan in 2017 and 2019, respectively. As a result of the classification of
species based on morphological and molecular tools, 96 and 547 isolates were identified as B.
sorokiniana for Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan, respectively. All surveyed regions for these
countries were contaminated with this pathogen. Some representative isolates of B.
sorokiniana were tested for their ability to cause disease and produced moderate disease
severities on cultivar Seri 82 (Triticum aestivum, bread wheat). The percent incidence of B.
sorokiniana isolates in all isolates was 15.2% for Azerbaijan, whereas, for Kazakhstan, B.
sorokiniana was the most frequently recovered species in the three regions surveyed, with an
isolated frequency of 44.80%. The results of the current study provide crucial and helpful
information to improve disease management strategies against CRR of wheat in these
countries.
