Abstract

A survey was conducted in Ankara and Eskisehir provinces of Turkey for determining anastomosis groups and pathogenicity of Rhizoctonia species associated with root and crown rot of wheat. Pathogenicity tests revealed that Rhizoctonia solani AG 8 caused the common symptoms of damping-off and stunting.
