The associated traits were measured in the same field trials as FHB parameters, except for anther extrusion, tenacity of glumes, and plant height 2012 which were unavailable in spawn inoculated experiments, in those cases, mean values in spray inoculated experiments (the former two) and the values in 2011 from the same location (the latter one) were used and the results were presented in parentheses.
