A method for selecting candidate microbial antagonists that will suppress Fusarium head blight (head scab) in cereals, particularly in wheat and barley relies on the ability of strains obtained from seed heads to utilize choline or betaine as a sole carbon source. Strains that are choline or betaine utilization positive are bioassayed in the seed head of a cereal plant inoculated with F. graminearum for the ability of the strains to reduce the incidence of FHB. Strains that suppress the disease are further evaluated in greenhouse and field studies. From a pool of more than 700 strains, 4 yeasts (NRRL Y-30213, NRRL Y- 30214, NRRL Y-30215, and NRRL Y-30216 and 1 bacteria (NRRL B- 30212) have been identified as being superior antagonists capable of suppressing head blight.

Une méthode pour sélectionner des antagonistes microbiens candidats qui réprimeront la fusariose de l'épi chez les céréales, en particulier le blé et l'orge, repose sur la capacité des souches obtenues à partir des épis à utiliser la choline ou la bétaïne comme source unique de carbone. Les souches donnant des résultats positifs quant à l'utilisation de la choline ou de la bétaïne sont soumises à des essais biologiques dans l'épi d'un plant de céréale inoculé avec Fusarium graminearum, cela pour caractériser la capacité des souches à réduire l'incidence de la fusariose de l'épi. Les souches qui répriment la maladie sont évaluées de manière plus approfondie dans le cadre d'essai en serre et au champ. Dans une série de plus de 700 souches, on a trouvé 4 levures (NRRL Y-30213, NRRL Y-30214, NRRL Y-30215, et NRRL Y-30216 et 1 bactérie (NRRL B-30212) possédant des capacités supérieures pour ce qui est de combattre la fusariose de l'épi.
