FUM1—A Gene Required for Fumonisin Biosynthesis But Not for Maize Ear Rot and Ear Infection by Gibberella moniliformis in Field Tests [PDF]
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002 We have analyzed the role of fumonisins in infection of maize (Zea mays) by Gibberella moniliformis (anamorph Fusarium verticillioides) in field tests in Illinois and Iowa, United States.

Bacteria existing in pre-pollinated styles (silks) can defend the exposed male gamete fertilization channel of maize against an environmental Fusarium pathogen [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 In flowering plants, fertilization requires exposing maternal style channels to the external environment to capture pollen and transmit its resident sperm nuclei to eggs. This results in progeny seed.

Stability of Resistance of Maize to Ear Rots (Fusarium graminearum, F. verticillioides and Aspergillus flavus) and Their Resistance to Toxin Contamination and Conclusions for Variety Registration [PDF]
ToxinsAll major ear rots (F. graminearum, F. verticillioides, and Aspergillus flavus) and their toxins are present in maize of preharvest origin in Hungary. Resistance can be an important tool in reducing the infection and toxin contamination from these rots ...

Insect ear‐feeding impacts Gibberella ear rot and deoxynivalenol accumulation in corn grain
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 10, Issue 1, June 2024.Abstract High deoxynivalenol (DON) levels in corn (Zea mays L.) is a grain quality issue for many growers in the US Great Lakes region. High DON levels can be attributed to the interaction of environment, pathogen (Fusarium spp. causing ear rot), and hybrid susceptibility.

Resistance to Gibberella ear rot in maize: Insights from near‐isogenic line populations
Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 6, November/December 2025.Abstract Gibberella ear rot (GER) of maize, caused by Fusarium graminearum, poses a serious threat to human and animal safety as mycotoxins are deposited in the grain during fungal colonization and are hazardous to human and animal health. Currently, no completely resistant germplasm has been identified, and the underlying mechanisms of resistance ...

Reactions of Processing Sweet Corn Hybrids to Gibberella Ear Rot [PDF]
Plant Disease, 1999 Gibberella ear rot has increased in prevalence recently on late-season processing sweet corn grown in the Midwestern United States. Little information is available about the reactions of hybrids currently grown for processing. A total of 52 processing hybrids were evaluated in 1996 and 1997 for reactions to Gibberella zeae following one of two methods
