Maize yields have stagnated in sub‐Sahara Africa: a possible transgenic solution to weed, pathogen and insect constraints

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 9, Page 4156-4162, September 2024.
Single locus combinatorial biolistic transgenic engineering of genes encoding resistance to the multiple weed, insect and pathogen constraints bred into high‐yielding germplasm can overcome stagnating African maize yields. Abstract Despite major breeding efforts by various national and international agencies, yields for the ~40 million hectares of ...

Natural occurrence of maize Gibberella ear rot and contamination of grain with mycotoxins in association with weather variables

, 2021
Gibberella ear rot (GER) severity (percent area of the ear diseased) and associated grain contamination with mycotoxins were quantified in plots of 15 to 16 maize hybrids planted at 10 Ohio locations from 2015 to 2018. Deoxynivalenol (DON) was quantified

Reaction of a collection of Triticum species and Triticales to crown rot (GibberelLa zeae) [PDF]

, 1971
No evidence of complete resistance or immunity to crown rot (Gibberella zeae) was detected in glasshouse studies of a wide range of Triticum species and Triticales. Similarly no such resistance was found in varieties resistant to head blight ( G.

NIR‐HSI as a tool to predict deoxynivalenol and fumonisins in maize kernels: a step forward in preventing mycotoxin contamination

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 104, Issue 9, Page 5495-5503, July 2024.
Abstract BACKGROUND Maize is frequently contaminated with deoxynivalenol (DON) and fumonisins B1 (FB1) and B2 (FB2). In the European Union, these mycotoxins are regulated in maize and maize‐derived products. To comply with these regulations, industries require a fast, economic, safe, non‐destructive and environmentally friendly analysis method ...

The Efficacy of Endophytes and Epiphytes Against Fusarium Head Blight in Wheat and Gibberella Ear Rot in Corn Under Field Conditions [PDF]

, 2023
Fusarium graminearum (Fg), the causative agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB) in wheat and Gibberella ear rot (GER) in corn, affects two of the most important food crops globally and is of significant concern in Ontario.

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.

Corn diseases of 2014: Northern corn leaf blight, Physoderma brown spot, ear and stalk rots [PDF]

, 2014
The 2014 growing season started with good conditions at planting. Above normal precipitation in June however was prevalent across most of the state and likely played a role in infection and development of Northern corn leaf blight (NCLB), Physoderma ...

Comparison of four inoculation methods and three Fusarium species for phenotyping stalk rot resistance among 22 maize hybrids (Zea mays)

Plant Pathology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1060-1071, June 2024.
Needle injection of Fusarium graminearum and assessment of internode proportion are the most promising methods in phenotyping maize genotypes for Fusarium stalk rot resistance in central Europe. Abstract Fusarium stalk rot (FSR) is among the most destructive maize diseases causing significant global yield losses.

Severe storm damage and short‐term weather stresses on corn: A review

Crop Science, Volume 64, Issue 3, Page 1129-1166, May/June 2024.
Abstract Adverse weather conditions from acute events (e.g., storms causing lodging, flooding, or hail) or short‐duration weather patterns (i.e., periods of cold events; extended waterlogged field conditions) can result in yield losses, though management practices may play key roles in aiding with crop recovery or avoidance of these stress events.

Diplodia Ear Rot being Reported in Iowa

, 2015
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.
