Twenty six spring lines of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were studied from the view point of their tolerance to phytotoxins of Fusarium head blight caused by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe; the correlation between their tolerance to phytotoxic extract and field resistance were studied using semi-purified phytotoxins on growing coleoptiles segments. The results showed that although there was a great variability among different wheat lines regarding their tolerance to semi-purified phytotoxins, there were no correlations between tolerance of semi-purified phytotoxins and disease index (R=O.Oa"S), and between their tolerance and disease incidence (R = -0.08ns).
