Chemical Control of Common Wheat Bunt Disease in Tunisia. In Tunisia, chemical treatment of common wheat seeds inoculated with common bunt (Tilletia foetidaj proved that the fungicides : flutriafol 2.5 % + thiabendazole 2.5 %, triticonazole 2.5 %, difenoconazole 3 % and copper oxyquinoleate betaxate 10 % + carboxin 50 % were efficient against the infection (less than 5 % ofthe spikes were infected). But, maneb 48 % and copper oxyquinoleate betaxate 10 % were relatively less efficient (5 to 10 % of the spikes were infected). Inoculated control had 43 % of bunted spikes.
