Epidemiological Studies of Northern Corn Leaf Blight on Corn Inbreds: Loss Assessment and Disease Modeling
… defoliation due to detasseling and disease. Northern corn left blight (NCLB), caused by Exserohilum turcicum, an important disease of maize, has provided a model system for evaluating the relationships between disease and components of yields of inbreds. The effects on yields of two …

Effect of Resistance Type on the Development of and Yield Losses Due to Northern Corn Leaf Blight
… effect of resistant type on the development of northern leaf blight (NLB), caused by Exserohilum turcicum, was studied on three dent corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids: A619 x A632, B73 x Oh545 and Mo17 x B73. Two nearly isogenic versions of each hybrid were used, one version carrying the resistance …

Evaluation of additive and nonadditive genetic variation in elite maize germplasm for root, shoot, and ear characteristics
For the hybrid seed corn industry, corn breeding and research in the public sector ideally would serve the role of identifying novel genes, alleles, and breeding procedures that have promising commercial applications. However, despite increasing research on public germplasm improvement, the role is …

Genetic architecture of multiple disease resistance in one maize chromosome segment substitution line population
… fungal and bacterial resistance. Bacterial leaf streak (BLS) is a foliar disease of maize caused by Xanthomonas vasicola pv. vasculorum. Since the first report of BLS in the United States in 2014, this disease has spread all over the Midwestern corn belt. Little is known about the disease …

Interactions between oxidative stresses in corn
… sorghi), brown spot (Physoderma maydis), northern leaf blight (Exserohilum turcicum), and gray leaf spot (Cercospora zeae-maydis). Within a growing season disease severity was highly genotype-dependent; however, there were modest genotype-independent ozone effects, mostly significant under …

Identifying loci conferring quantitative disease resistance in sorghum and maize against fungal foliar pathogens
… studied for resistance to a variety of diseases. Northern corn leaf blight and sorghum leaf blight are both caused by the hemibiotrophic fungus Exserohilum turcicum. Both qualitative and quantitative resistance against E. turcicum have been described in maize. In contrast, the genetic architecture …

Studies on sweet corn: Stewart's wilt forecasting, the effect of maize dwarf mosaic on foliar diseases, and herbicide sensitivity
… can limit the production of high quality sweet corn. Separate studies were done to determine the probability of exceeding 1% and 5% incidence of Stewart’s wilt on sweet corn with different reactions to Pantoea stewartii, the effect of maize dwarf mosaic (MDM) on eight foliar diseases, and the …

Evaluation of race population distribution, fungicide sensitivity, and fungicide control of Exserohilum turcicum, the causal agent of northern leaf blight of corn
Northern leaf blight (NLB) of corn, caused by Exserohilum turcicum, is a yield reducing foliar disease common across the north central U.S. Previous race population distribution studies identified five physiological races present in the U.S., prior to 1995. For this study, 156 E. turcicum isolates …
