Synopsis
This book explores the major types of ear rots found in corn, with a focus on the most prevalent and economically damaging type—Diplodia–the subject of approximately 90% of corn ear rot cases. The author details the life cycle of Diplodia and its three main disease vectors within the corn plant itself–ears, stalks and husks. This groundbreaking work delves into the conditions that allow this fungus to thrive and explores how environmental factors influence infection rates. The author also discusses the relationship between old, infected corn stalks and the subsequent infection rates in newly planted corn, underscoring the importance of crop rotation in managing Diplodia. Full of practical information for understanding and combating this persistent issue in corn cultivation, this book is an invaluable resource for farmers and agricultural scientists.
