Involvement of FvSet1 in Fumonisin B1 Biosynthesis, Vegetative Growth, Fungal Virulence, and Environmental Stress Responses in Fusarium verticillioides

Toxins, 2017
Fusarium verticillioides (teleomorph, Gibberella moniliformis) is an important plant pathogen that causes seedling blight, stalk rot, and ear rot in maize (Zea mays). During infection, F.

Development of Gibberella Ear Rot on Processing Sweet Corn Hybrids Over an Extended Period of Harvest [PDF]

Plant Disease, 2007
Gibberella ear rot, caused by Gibberella zeae, has increased in prevalence recently on lateseason processing sweet corn grown in North America. Little information is available about the development of Gibberella ear rot on processing sweet corn hybrids over extended periods of harvest. In five trials from 2003 to 2005, 12 processing sweet corn hybrids

Allelic Variation in Maize Malate Dehydrogenase 7 Shapes Promoter Methylation and Banded Leaf and Sheath Blight Resistance

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, 3 February 2026.
In this study maize chloroplastic malate dehydrogenase7 (ZmMDH7), is identified as a Rhizoctonia solani resistance gene in maize. ZmMDH7 is regulated by transcription factor ZmWRKY44 via pathogens challenge to elevate mitochondrial ROS and SA signaling pathway.

Comparative Review of Fusarium graminearum Infection in Maize and Wheat: Similarities in Resistance Mechanisms and Future Directions

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
Fusarium graminearum is one of the most important plant-pathogenic fungi that causes disease on wheat and maize, as it decreases yield in both crops and produces mycotoxins that pose a risk to human and animal health.

Advanced backcross selection for resistance to Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination in maize

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Ear rots and mycotoxin contamination of grain in maize (Zea mays L.) pose a threat to food production and safety, best ameliorated by breeding for resistance. In this study, we introgressed alleles conferring resistance to Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination from GE440, a highly resistant inbred with poor agronomic performance, into ...

Bacterial endophytes from wild maize suppress Fusarium graminearum in modern maize and inhibit mycotoxin accumulation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Wild maize (teosinte) has been reported to be less susceptible to pests than their modern maize (corn) relatives. Endophytes, defined as microbes that inhabit plants without causing disease, are known for their ability to antagonize plant pests and ...

Antioxidant Secondary Metabolites in Cereals: Potential Involvement in Resistance to Fusarium and Mycotoxin Accumulation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Gibberella and Fusarium Ear Rot and Fusarium Head Blight are major diseases affecting European cereals. These diseases are mainly caused by fungi of the Fusarium genus, primarily Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium verticillioides.
