The most dangerous among them are brown leaf rust, septoria leaf blotch, and powdery mildew on the foliage, as well as fusarium head blight and septoria on the ear. Infection of plants by these diseases leads to significant grain yield losses. According to several authors, yield losses in winter wheat caused by diseases reach 25–30% or more. Similar substantial reductions in productivity due to disease infection are also observed in winter rye, winter barley, and triticale. The most effective method of reducing disease incidence on winter cereals—both on leaves and ears—is the development of resistant varieties. To determine the tolerance level of new varieties and hybrids of winter cereals to leaf and ear diseases, annual monitoring is necessary to identify the most pathogen-resistant genetic lines. This is particularly important in the context of the European Green Deal, which limits the use of synthetic pesticides for disease control in agricultural crops, making the use of immune or resistant varieties and hybrids especially relevant. During the implementation of the research project, it was established that many new varieties of winter wheat, winter rye, winter barley, and triticale exhibit tolerance to diseases of the leaf apparatus and ear, such as septoria, brown leaf rust, and powdery mildew on leaves, as well as septoria and fusarium on the ear. These varieties are recommended for introduction into agricultural production and breeding practice. Their implementation in production provides an opportunity to preserve a significant share of grain yield from disease damage and prevents environmental contamination with chemical compounds.
