• Wheat after wheat is common in
WA, especially in low rainfall
areas and on loamy soils
• This is despite the well known
benefits of break crops for
system sustainability
• Can management of continuous
wheat prolong system
sustainability?

Initial crown rot levels were high
• In 2015 crown rot organism
isolated from ~12% of crowns
remaining from 2014*
• Predicta B: high levels of crown
rot DNA in soil, low or nil levels
of other soil borne diseases

• Continuous wheat can be sustainable for at least 4 years on a loamy soil
with a crown rot background
• Emu Rock has lower crown rot expression than Mace or Magenta and
lower inoculum carry-over to the following season.
• Competitive crops are crucial in preventing weed blowouts
