Biodiversity ofFusariumspecies causing ear rot of maize in Germany
Cereal Research Communications, 2008 In Germany, maize is one of the most important agriculture commodities, a major component in animal feed as well as an essential substrate producing biogas. Maize ear rot poses a major impact worldwide as it is caused by several Fusarium spp., most of which have the ability to produce mycotoxins.

, 2018 Fusarium ear rot, caused by Fusarium verticillioides, is one of the most common worldwide diseases of maize, causing yield and quality reductions as well as contamination of grain by fumonisins and other mycotoxins. Drought stress and various insects have been implicated as factors affecting disease severity. Three separate field studies were conducted

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.

Biological Control, 2020 Abstract Fusarium ear rot (FER) and Gibberella ear rot (GER) are common fungal diseases of maize responsible for yield losses and reduced kernel quality due to contamination by mycotoxins. Since no chemical treatments are available to control Fusarium disease in maize, biological control could represent a promising sustainable strategy.

Comparing Characterization Methods of Fusarium Ear Rot Resistance in Corn
, 2019 Fusarium Ear Rot in corn is a disease that produces toxins known as fumonisins that are harmful to humans and other animals. Characterizing and improving the resistance to Fusarium Ear Rot in corn is important to corn seed producers like Corteva to ...

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 ...

Host plant resistance and epidemiology of Fusarium ear rot in maize.
, 2009 This thesis examines fusarium ear rot epidemiology in maize (Zea mays L.) and host plant resistance to Fusarium species causing ear rot, in eastern Canada, through three major groups of experiments. A three-year disease survey that determines the causal agents of maize ear rot in Ontario; a three-year study on the stability of different genotypes to ...

Comparative genomics of Fusarium species causing Fusarium ear rot of maize. [PDF]
PLoS OneFusarium ear rot (FER), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium verticillioides, stands as one of the most economically burdensome and pervasive diseases affecting maize worldwide. Its impact on food security is particularly pronounced due to the production of fumonisins, toxic secondary metabolites that pose serious health risks, especially for ...
