Managing rotten corn: An overview of corn ear rots
Proceedings of the Integrated Crop Management Conference, 2012 Ear rots of corn can reduce yield and grain quality. Several economically important ear rots impact the Corn Belt, including Diplodia ear rot, Gibberella ear rot, Fusarium ear rot, and Aspergillus ear rot.

Maize Kernel Antioxidants and Their Potential Involvement in Fusarium Ear Rot Resistance
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2013 The potential involvement of antioxidants (α-tocopherol, lutein, zeaxanthin, β-carotene, and ferulic acid) in the resistance of maize varieties to Fusarium ear rot was the focus of this study. These antioxidants were present in all maize kernel stages, indicating that the fumonisin-producing fungi (mainly Fusarium verticillioides and Fusarium ...

Pedigree selection for Gibberella ear rot resistance in maize
Euphytica, 2005 The pedigree method is often used for developing inbred lines in maize (Zea mays L.). This study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of pedigree selection for improving resistance to Gibberella ear rot in four maize populations. Selection was based on the severity of ear rot symptoms after inoculation with macroconidial suspensions of Fusarium ...

Genomics of Maize Resistance to Fusarium Ear Rot and Fumonisin Contamination. [PDF]
Toxins (Basel), 2020 Food contamination with mycotoxins is a worldwide concern, because these toxins produced by several fungal species have detrimental effects on animal and/or human health. In maize, fumonisins are among the toxins with the highest threatening potential because they are mainly produced by Fusarium verticillioides, which is distributed worldwide.

Molecular Basis of Resistance to Fusarium Ear Rot in Maize. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2017 The impact of climate change has been identified as an emerging issue for food security and safety, and the increased incidence of mycotoxin contamination in maize over the last two decades is considered a potential emerging hazard. Disease control by chemical and agronomic approaches is often ineffective and increases the cost of production; for this ...

Mapping candidate genes for Fusarium ear rot resistance
, 2011 Fusarium ear rot is one of the most important disease of maize, that is of concerns because Fusarium verticillioides produces the mycotoxins fumonisins. Resistance to Fusarium ear rot is polygenic with nearly complete dominance or overdominance of resistance alleles.

Toxins, 2022 The fungal ear rot of maize cultivated in temperate areas is mainly due to the Fusarium species. The use of insecticides against European Corn Borer (ECB) reduces the severity of fungal ear rot as well as the fumonisin (FB) and moniliformin (MON) levels ...
