Other diseases, such as Gray Leaf Spot (GLS), are also developing. Lesions of GLS elongating on corn leaf. The symptoms of the disease vary with the severity of the infection and stage of corn development at which the infection occurred. nomic threshold is to treat when 5% of the corn plants have either unhatched egg masses or larvae are present on the plant but before they burrow into the ear. Most fields do not immediately need a fungicide application for disease management purposes. 0000003303 00000 n If conditions favor disease development, economic losses can occur.

The market is segmented into seed corn, field corn and specialty corns (e.g., high oil, high amylose and white corn). Northern corn leaf spot, also known as Carbonum leaf spot, is caused by the fungus Bipolaris zeicola. Gray leaf spot (GLS) has reached threshold levels in some corn fields in southwestern Iowa and a fungicide application should be considered for these fields.

The fungal disease causes lesions that lead to yellowing leaf tissue and reduced photosynthetic activity, causing shortened yield potential through smaller ears with fewer kernels. He added that tar spot has also been found in Ontario, Canada and an isolated area of Pennsylvania. At higher disease levels, even greater … 0000214577 00000 n 0000214022 00000 n 3. Gray leaf spot of corn. Various estimates place the leaf area damage in the range of 10 to 25 percent on the bottom four leaves before economic losses can be expected to occur. When lesions are at the ear leaf or above prior to flowering, the potential for yield loss is present. Northern corn leaf spot is favored by high humidity and warm weather.

Unresolved Issues for gray leaf spot Corn is grown throughout Nebraska on over 8 million acres of land; approximately 5 million acres are irrigated. The disease is first detectable as small grayish lesions on the lower leaves, which run parallel to the veins. 0000215618 00000 n Gray leaf spot overwinters in and on corn debris left above and on the soil surface. Treatments were five different applications included with check (untreated). 0000013616 00000 n Several fungicides are commercially available for use on corn for the control of gray leaf spot (Table II). Albert E. Rossi, Plant Disease Research Laboratory, USDA-ARS, Frederick, MD. Infection of corn leaves and disease development are favored by warm (80s°F), humid (>90% for 12+ hours) weather.” When it does occur, it is more likely to be found in susceptible hybrids grown in corn after corn or in no till situations and is favored by high humidity. And, we’re monitoring low level development of gray leaf spot and northern corn leaf blight. Weather and other conditions have been favorable recently for development of gray leaf spot in Illinois. In the past week I have started to see some corn leaf diseases, specifically Gray Leaf Spot (GLS), in many corn fields. The spores can be wind-blown or water-splashed onto the lower leaves. Gray leaf spot (GLS) has the potential to limit corn yields if weather is favorable for disease development around VT-R1 and throughout the early reproductive stages. Lesions can grow together and kill entire leaves. 0000216233 00000 n This threshold is being reevaluated because of the new hybrids and fungicide products that have been developed since then. (Figures 1-3 by Nathan Mueller) Figure 2. 2:26. Gray leaf spot (GLS) can be one of the most significant diseases on corn in the Midwest. Both gray leaf spot and northern corn leaf blight are also active in the lower canopy of corn across the state. ��l�4 ��P}Ie([�%\�\�g��ؠ � trailer Gray Leaf Spot of Corn: A Disease on the Move. Hence, irrigated fields would tend to provide a better environment for the disease than non-irrigated fields. Field corn represents the largest portion of the acreage grown. Producers can also use foliar fungicides when the economic threshold is exceeded. One of the most common foliar corn diseases in Tennessee is gray leaf spot (caused by a fungus – Cercospora zea-maydis), especially in continuous corn fields (see Images 1 and 2). There are five known races of this fungus. Multiple lesions from Northern corn leaf blight on lower leaf in a continuous corn field in east central Nebraska. 0000010240 00000 n 0000212988 00000 n "Research in Indiana indicates that strobilurin and strobilurin/triazole premix fungicides are most effective at preventing yield loss when applied in response to disease presence, and at the tasseling to early silking (VT-R1) growth stage," she says. 0000000016 00000 n As temperatures warm and humidity increases, spores are produced on the residue (Figure 3). Those black spots are more than unsightly -- they're stealing corn from you. This pathogen was not seen as an economic threat until the mid 1970’s when no-till and other conservation tillage practices were becoming more prevalent. 0000004741 00000 n 0000014508 00000 n This threshold is being reevaluated because of the new hybrids and fungicide products that have been developed since then. Gray Leaf Spot is a fungus found in corn nearly every growing season. Gray Leaf Spot of Field Corn. much impact gray leaf spot will have on corn production. No. Gray leaf spot, caused by the fungus Cercospora zeae-maydis, occurs virtually every growing season. “In any case, you’re back to scouting and seeing what is in the field,” Schmidt says. Most fungicides provide protection for an average of 21-28 days. 587 0 obj <>stream It is going to be extremely important to be out scouting, especially if you are trying to make a decision on a fungicide application. ... Gray leaf spot on corn. 0000215053 00000 n Several fungicides are available to help manage southern rust, tar spot, gray leaf spot, and other leaf diseases with a recommended application occurring at late vegetative stages through R1 for most of these foliar diseases. Although research attempts have been made to establish a threshold, they have not been successful likely because the disease triangle drives disease development and even the best pathologist has little say in weather conditions. 0000015356 00000 n Gray leaf spot and yield losses in corn. The lesions appear on the oldest leaves first, and progress upward. As temperatures warm and humidity increases, spores are produced on the residue (Figure 3). 0000213877 00000 n corn diseases, it is recommended that suspicious samples be sent to the Arkansas Plant Health Clinic in Fayetteville for proper identification. The fungus that causes gray leaf spot infects the corn plant during prolonged periods of warm weather between 75-80 degrees and at more than 90 percent relative humidity. Typical lesions are rectangular with straight edges. As temperatures warm and humidity increases, spores are produced on the residue (Figure 3).

In corn, the threshold for gray leaf spot (GLS), developed in the mid-1990s, consists of lesions on the third leaf below the ear leaf or higher occurring on 50% of the plants at tasseling. Gray leaf spot is also active in the lower to mid canopy at multiple sites across the state. Gray leaf spot (GLS), caused by Cercospora zeae-maydis, is an important foliar disease of maize (Zea mays L.) worldwide, resistance to which is controlled by multiple quantitative trait loci (QTL). We provide evidence for structural and detoxification-related mechanisms … Gray leaf spot is characterized by rectangular lesions that are 1-2 inches in length and cover the entire area between the leaf veins. 0000216084 00000 n Most fields do not immediately need a fungicide application for disease management purposes. 0000195688 00000 n 0000215108 00000 n [�4�G;��C�:f*��&ay,2�������H(�g �(f#�e0 �����x�e���G3�L�ՈLœ"ѱ� ���cI�`%�cM�)�/z�Y�i�*IBխ���y���"�aQEH��K(��Hb�h:HR��$�д�4jah�)a*ل����B8�#�G�c*����/ Because gray leaf spot survives in corn residue, the risk of disease increases when corn is planted back into a field that was in corn the previous year. 0000003744 00000 n 0000195934 00000 n 0000212000 00000 n It is going to be extremely important to be out scouting, especially if you are trying to make a decision on a fungicide application. 0000214339 00000 n For now, however, the threshold stands. �u�{�tlq��(T����fVI� �1�-s��;;J�,N(?a�P,B�Ģ��X$:�ʑ@� A three-spray schedule of 0.01 percent imidacloprid at … This article is in the public domain and not copyrightable. 0000006579 00000 n 478 110 Management approaches that include hybrid selection, residue management, crop rotation and timely fungicide applications can be … 0000214226 00000 n 0000213450 00000 n From that initial find, the disease reached economic threshold levels by 1992.
