If infection of the shank occurs early enough the ear may be killed prematurely which causes the ear to drop. SCLB affected kernels will be covered in a felty, black mold, which may cause cob rot. [1] Ear rot is more extensive with Race T on T-cms corn. [8] Seedlings that become infected may wilt and die within a view weeks of the planting date ...
[2] [16] In sweet corn, reflective mulches can be an effective way to control D. maidis and the disease it vectors, compared to insecticides. [17] Mulching should be performed early in the plant's development to properly control this disease, as greater damage happens if the plant host is younger when infected with corn stunt disease.
Northern corn leaf blight (NCLB) or Turcicum leaf blight (TLB) is a foliar disease of corn caused by Exserohilum turcicum, the anamorph of the ascomycete Setosphaeria turcica. With its characteristic cigar-shaped lesions, this disease can cause significant yield loss in susceptible corn hybrids.
This ear of corn has been infected with Mycosarcoma maydis. The fungus infects all parts of the host plant by invading the ovaries of its host. The infection causes the corn kernels to swell up into tumor-like galls, wherein the tissues, texture, and developmental pattern are mushroom-like. The galls grow to 4 to 5 inches in diameter.
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.
