Influence of Sesamia nonagrioides and Fusarium verticillioides on carbon elemental and isotopic composition in maize stem piths [PDF]
BMC Research NotesThe stem borer Sesamia nonagrioides and the fungus Fusarium verticillioides are frequently present in maize. However, their interaction with this crop and their effects on its physiology remain poorly understood.

Plants, 2022 Maturation imposes several changes in plants, which are particularly drastic in the case of trees. In recalcitrant woody species, such as chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.), one of the major maturation-related shifts is the loss of the ability to form ...

Maize kernel metabolome involved in resistance to fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Fusarium verticillioides poses a threat to worldwide maize production due to its ability to infect maize kernel and synthesize fumonisins that can be accumulated above safety levels for humans and animals.

Fine analysis of a genomic region involved in resistance to Mediterranean corn borer
BMC Plant Biology, 2018 Background Sesamia nonagrioides Lefebvere (Mediterranean corn borer, MCB) is the main pest of maize in the Mediterranean area. QTL for MCB stalk tunneling and grain yield under high MCB infestation had been located at bin 8.03–8.05 (4–21 cM and 10–30 cM ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Limited attention has been paid to maize (Zea mays L.) resistance induced by corn borer damage, although evidence shows that induced defenses have lower resource allocation costs than constitutive defenses. Maize responses to short- and long-term feeding
