Lesions when Race O is present are tan in color with buff to brown borders. They begin as small, diamond-shaped lesions and elongate within the veins to become larger and rectangular. Race O's lesions remain within the leaves of the maize plant. [3] [6] Lesion size ranges from 2 to 6 millimeters wide and 3 to 22 millimeters long. [5]
As the disease progresses, the lesions grow together and create large areas of dead leaf tissue. The lesions found in Northern corn leaf blight are more acute if the leaves above the ear are infected during or soon after flowering of the plant. [4] In susceptible corn hybrids, lesions are also found on the husk of ears or leaf sheaths.

Corn grey leaf spot can be an extremely devastating disease as potential yield losses range from 5 to 40 US bushels per acre (440 to 3,480 L/ha). At higher disease levels, even greater losses can result. When a corn plant's ability to store and produce carbohydrates (glucose) in the grain is diminished, yield losses take place.
Blight is a rapid and complete chlorosis, browning, then death of plant tissues such as leaves, branches, twigs, or floral organs. [1] Accordingly, many diseases that primarily exhibit this symptom are called blights. Several notable examples are: [citation needed]
Leaf spots can vary in size, shape, and color depending on the age and type of the cause or pathogen. Plants, shrubs and trees are weakened by the spots on the leaves as they reduce available foliar space for photosynthesis. Other forms of leaf spot diseases include leaf rust, downy mildew and blights. [4]

The plant has stout and unbranched 1.3 centimeters (0.5 in) to 2.5 centimeters (1 in) thick stems. [8] Since C. americana does not photosynthesize [5] it also does not have true leaves; it has instead simple, ovate, tiny scales [3] 1.3 centimeters (0.5 in) long and brown, which appear at the base of each flower.
