, 1999 This year does not appear to be a particularly bad year for ear rots, but there are a few unusual occurrences. First, there seems to be more corn earworm damage than usual this year. This can lead to increased Fusarium ear rot.

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Biofumigation with brassica cover crops (BCCs) is gaining momentum in the United States as an ecologically sound alternative to chemical pest suppression in agricultural systems. This review critically evaluates the impacts of Brassica species on soil health, weed suppression, disease mitigation, and control of plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs)

Diplodia Ear Rot being Reported in Iowa
, 2008 Ear and stalk rots are likely to become prevalent in Iowa as the growing season draws to a close. In the past week, we have had a few reports of Diplodia ear rot from the northeast, central and southeastern parts of the state.

ToxinsA complex of Fusarium species frequently infects maize, causing root, ear, and stem rot, yield losses, reduced seed quality, and mycotoxin accumulation. To quantify Fusarium species composition and mycotoxin contamination, we conducted a first nationwide

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT Accurate evaluation of maize performance across diverse environments is essential for improving yield stability and cultivar adaptation under a changing climate. However, conventional breeding approaches often struggle to address multi‐trait trade‐offs and complex genotype‐by‐environment (G × E) interactions while explicitly incorporating ...

Resistance to Aspergillus ear rot and aflatoxin
, 1995 In 1991, 1,041 and 949 crosses with the susceptible corn (Zea mays L.) inbreds Mo17 and B73, respectively, were evaluated for resistance to ear rot caused by Aspergillus flavus using a pinboard inoculator developed at the University of Illinois.

Aspergillus Ear Rot and Aflatoxin Production
, 2012 Not surprisingly, the hot dry conditions we have been experiencing across the Corn Belt have many farmers and the grain industry concerned about aflatoxin, a potent mycotoxin that is produced by the fungal pathogen, Aspergillus flavus, which causes ...
