Trying to decide if you need another spray this season for stripe rust? Give the Stripe Rust WM app a go, it will help calculate potential yield losses and the economics of fungicide application. agric.wa.gov.au/apps/striperusโ€ฆ

How do we know what rust pathotypes are present in SA? Sydney Uni's Australian Cereal Rust Survey collects this data. SA 2022 Stripe rust results are still undergoing analysis, but based on varietal responses we are suspecting multiple pathotypes. sydney.edu.au/science/our-reโ€ฆ

Pseudo Black Chaff isn't the problem you might think. Each season, there are reports of discoloration occurring in wheat crops across Australia. This discolouring can be alarming, as it can be mistaken for the development of disease, which it is not. More: bit.ly/3CoErS7

One to keep an eye out for with a wet end to a late season. Ramularia is also present in SA. Unsure about diagnosing it? Send me a sample Crop Watch SA

Seeing some pink cereal heads in the paddock at this end of the season? This is likely opportunistic yeast growth from wet and humid conditions. These yeasts aren't pathogens and are acting similarly to field moulds growing on senesced plant tissue.

Had a few questions about stripe rusts ability to survive temps over 30. We know it won't grow while it's hot, but can it start up again if conditions cool down? Any thoughts Steven Simpfendorfer Brad Baxter
