SUMMARY When seedlings of the winter wheat cultivars Cappelle‐Desprez, Champlein and Hybrid 46 were artificially infected with mycelial inoculum of Cercosporella herpotrichoides Fron, the number of leaf sheaths penetrated by the pathogen increased with temperature over the range 6‐18 o C. Rate of growth of the pathogen on agar also increased with temperature over this range. Temperature had little effect on differences between cultivars in number of leaf sheaths penetrated.
