Abstract
 

Viral diseases are the most important diseases of cereal in southwest Iran. During 2008-2011 growing seasons, the efficacy of seed treatment with imidacloprid and thiamethoxam on three cultivars of wheat were evaluated for the control of virus diseases with natural vectors in field condition. The experimental design was a split plots arrangement of a randomized complete block with four replications. Disease incidence was determined based on the percentage of plants exhibiting symptoms and ELISA test. At harvest, data were collected on yield and yield components. The three-year analysis of results indicated that seed treatment insecticides increased grain yield and yield components, with significant reduction in the incidence of barley yellow dwarf virus (PAV and MAV serotypes), cereal yellow dwarf virus) RPV serotype), wheat dwarf virus (WDV), maize Iranian mosaic virus (MIMV) and barley yellow striate mosaic virus (BYSMV) in wheat plants relative to untreated controls, while incidence of wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) wasn’t affected significantly (P=0.01). The effect of seed treatment with imidacloprid was higher than thiamethoxam. “Shahriar” wheat cultivar treated with imidacloprid was the most effective treatment in controlling virus diseases. Incidence of virus diseases on Alvand cultivar was more than other cultivars. The amounts of infection to WSMV, BYDV-PAV, CYDV-RPV, WDV, BYSMV, BYDV-MAV and MIMV in seed treatment plots were from highest to lowest (in descending order), respectively.
