Breeding Maize for Resistance to Ear Rot Caused by Fusarium moniliforme

Pakistan Journal of Biological Sciences, 2012
Maize ear rots are among the most important impediments to increased maize production in Egypt. The present research was conducted to estimate combining abilities, heterosis and correlation coefficients for resistance to ear rot disease in seven corn inbred lines and their 21 crosses under field conditions.

Evaluation of Maize Hybrids for Resistance to Ear Rot Caused by Dominant Fusarium Species in Northeast China

Agronomy
Ear rot caused by the Fusarium species has led to a decline in maize yield and kernel quality worldwide. The changes in the population structure of pathogens and the widespread planting of susceptible maize varieties have exacerbated the occurrence and ...

Beneath the Bark: Molecular Determinants of Adaptation and Infection in Bacterial Pathogens of Woody Hosts

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens colonise woody hosts by integrating metabolic adaptation, effector‐mediated immune suppression, cell wall remodelling and EPS‐ and toxin‐supported persistence. ABSTRACT Bacterial pathogens of woody plants represent a pervasive yet underexplored threat to global agriculture and forestry, causing devastating diseases in fruit trees ...

Fungal Species and Mycotoxins Associated with Maize Ear Rots Collected from the Eastern Cape in South Africa

Toxins
Maize production in South Africa is concentrated in its central provinces. The Eastern Cape contributes less than 1% of total production, but is steadily increasing its production and has been identified as a priority region for future growth.

Transcriptome and Hormone Regulations Shape Drought Stress‐Dependent Fusarium Head Blight Susceptibility in Different Barley Genotypes

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5738-5755, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Little is known about regulatory mechanisms that crop plants use to respond to combinations of abiotic and biotic stress. We analysed four barley genotypes under simultaneous Fusarium culmorum infection and drought stress by phenotyping for Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) disease, drought stress responses, hormone profiling and transcriptome ...

Evaluation of ear rot (Fusarium verticillioides) resistance and fumonisin accumulation in Italian maize inbred lines

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2014
Mycotoxin contamination of maize (Zea mays L.) grain is a global threat to the safety of both human food and animal feed. Hence, the development of maize genotypes with reduced mycotoxin accumulation in grain is of major importance.

Achieving High‐Density and Stress‐Resilient Maize Breeding Via Germplasm Innovation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 38, 9 July 2026.
Global population growth and climate change have exacerbated the global food crisis. This perspective presents a conceptual framework focusing on enhancing population advantages. Several novel breeding objectives are proposed to improve density tolerance and stress resistance for yield improvement.

Identification of molecular markers linked to Fusarium ear rot genes in maize plants Zea mays L

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2016
Two maize populations (GE440 × Sd7 and NC300 × Gm1002) were used in this study. Molecular markers like simple sequence repeat (SSR) and sequence-tagged site (STS) were used to identify resistance genes linked to Fusarium ear rot (Fusarium verticillioides)

POTENTIAL IMPACTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, POLYPHENOLIC COMPOUNDS AND TRYPSIN INHIBITOR AGAINST EAR AND KERNEL ROTS DISEASES OF MAIZE [PDF]

Journal of Agricultural Chemistry and Biotechnology, 2010
Visible ear rot infection (VER), frequency of associated fungi percentages and disease severity rating (DSR) of 25 maize genotypes were affected significantly by the two years . Diseases criterion were higher in the season  of 2008 than 2009.

Disrupted Vestibular Nuclei Neuron Development in a Chick Model for Congenital Vestibular Disorders

Developmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Children with syndromic, congenital vestibular disorders (CVDs) form a sac‐like inner ear with missing or truncated semicircular canals and experience delayed motor development with lifelong challenges to maintain posture and balance. How the abnormal inner ear affects downstream central vestibular neural circuitry has not been investigated ...
