In Figure HO, the total effect of disease attack on oats, as indi- cated by the indexes of destructiveness given in previous pages, is illustrated for each year in comjiarison with an undiseased stalk of aver- age jiroportions. The stature of the stalk is shown reduced 29 per cent by stem rust attack in 1922, not at all in I'.ri'A. 1 per cent in 1924, per cent in 1925, and per cent in 1926; the normal leaf complement is illustrated as being reduced per cent by the com- bined attacks of crown rust and halo blight in 1922, per cent in 192;i, per cent in 1924, per cent in 1925, and per cent in 1926; and the sjjikelets are depicted as reduced per cent by scab and loose smut in 1922, ;;t8 per cent in 1923, per cent in 1924, per cent in 1925. and per cent in 1926. The destructiveness indicated by the indexes given previously for barley diseases is shown in Figure 91. In coni])arison with a barley stalk. Flo. 91. of barley , 1922-1926 The effect of disease attack upon the stems, leaves, and panicles of barley, as indicated by the indexes of destructiveness given in the text, is shown in comparison with an average healthy stalk.
