They were considered the most serious diseases that cause considerable losses in canola yield and quality, Serw 6 was the most resistant canola cultivar while Bactol cultivar was highly susceptible one with different sowing dates in field condition. First of October exhibited the lowest percentage in these diseases in both seasons.
