| dc.abstract.en | To cope with the increasing pressure from diseases and pests under climate change, the effect of 6 maize sowing dates on the plant health of an ultra-early maize variety (Pyroxenia, FAO 130) was analyzed in studies conducted from 2016 to 2018. The assessment of the response of the ultra-early variety to climate change will contribute to the identification of its predisposition to cultivation in terms of health recognition. The extent of plant damage caused by the frit fly (Oscinella frit L.), the European corn borer (Ostrinia nubilalis Hbn.), and the cereal leaf beetle (Oulema melanopus L.), as well as the severity of plant infection by Fusarium ear rot (Fusarium spp.) and maize smut (Ustilago maydis (D.C.) Corda), was assessed. Air temperature, precipitation, and the length of the growing period at individual sowing dates were also analyzed. The lowest level of insect damage and the highest level of disease infection were recorded in the final year of the study (2018), which was dry and had higher mean air temperature. Precipitation and temperature during the sowing dates ranged between 110.5 and 146.1 mm and 17.5 and 19.9 °C, respectively. The optimal sowing date for reducing maize losses caused by insect pests and diseases was found to be the earliest time points, i.e., between April 12 and 26. | |
