The effects of seed treatment with imazalil at 0.2 and 0.3 g a.i./kg seed on subcrown internode length and occurrence of coleoptile-node-tillers (CNT) was studied in four spring wheat cultivars at two locations in Saskatchewan. Without treatment, Cypress had the longest internodes followed in descending order by Glenlea, Neepawa, and Wascana. Generally, plants from imazalil-treated seed had significantly shorter subcrown internodes. Only a few plants from nontreated seed produced CNT and of these, many were soft or aborted, while the treated seed produced a number of CNT and many of these were firm tillers. The possible importance of these morphological changes in the reduction of common root rot, on drought resistance, cold hardiness, and yield is discussed.

Germplasm resistant to common root rot was developed from crossing Aegilops ovata with Triticum aestivum, using Chinese Spring ph 1b genetic stock and the cultivar Leader. The germplasm lines had yellow flour pigment and a longer mixing time and lower SDS sedimentation volume, falling number, and mixograph peak height than Leader. Yet, for most agronomic and quality traits, the germplasm was similar to that of Leader and Neepawa. Seed was classed as CWRS. This germplasm represents a different source of genes for resistance to common root rot than currently available in red spring wheat cultivars or breeding lines. Key words: Common root rot, resistance, Aegilops ovata, Triticum aestivum, germplasm
