Blackpoint is found in barley, triticale and wheat, although there is no separate tolerance defined for blackpoint in barley. Kernels are susceptible during periods of rainfall or humidity above 90% - particularly during filling or maturation. Blackpoint does not usually reduce yields, but it can reduce grade and quality. Blackpoint is especially troublesome on durum wheat because black specks can appear in the semolina. 1, record 1, English, - blackpoint

[Tache] près du germe des grains (grains mouchetés) causée par de nombreuses espèces de champignons et bactéries. 1, record 1, French, - moucheture
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
La moucheture atteint l'orge, le triticale et le blé, mais on n'a fixé aucune tolérance distincte concernant l'orge mouchetée. Les grains y sont vulnérables pendant les périodes prolongées de pluie ou d'humidité supérieure à 90 %, notamment aux stades de remplissage et de croissance. La moucheture ne nuit pas normalement aux rendements, mais elle peut atteindre la qualité et constituer un facteur de déclassement. Les dégâts chez le blé dur peuvent être importants puisque les piqûres noires peuvent paraître dans la semoule et la rendre impropre à d'autres transformations. 1, record 1, French, - moucheture
