Observations in eight weeks after sowing each year spring showed the occurrence of root rot and sheath rot in seedlings. As a result of mycological examination of infected seedlings 34 species of fungi were isolated:Fusarium spp. amounted up to 23% of all isolates. Each year,Fusarium culmorum andF.avenaceum were isolated, butF graminearum only in 1987. On all inspected fields there occurred plants with eye - spots or necrotic stripes on lower internodes. As a result of fungi isolation the colonies belonging to 30 species were identified from stems and roots of examined plants. There was about 35% of fusaria between isolates each year.Fusarium culmorum was most frequently isolated. This fungus both from stems with two mentioned kinds of symptoms and from roots was isolated.Fusarium avenaceum each year andFusarium graminearum in 1986 and 1988 were isolated.
