Study Regarding the Efficacy of Unconventional Treatment Products Against the Main Wheat Kernels Pathogens

Abstract

The raising of agriculture to European Union standards requires adaptation of agricultural production to quality standards that meet the demands and exigencies of consumers by obtaining healthy crops that fit into the rigors of food security. The biological material used was constituted of wheat kernels from three varieties cultivated at ARDS Turda. The biological control of wheat pathogens can be successfully achieved, in vitro, with plant extracts, and the maximum effect of this bioproducts was achieved in the case of the variants treated with, tee tree essential oil, garlic, arnica, Hypericum perforatum and propolis.
