Using stunning computer animations blended with real-life video, this teaching video impressively illustrates the disease cycles of five major fungal pathogens of corn, which can and do cause significant losses of crop yield and quality:
Common rust (Puccinia sorghi)
Northern leaf blight (Exserohilum turcicum)
Eyespot disease (Kabatiella zeae)
Gray leaf spot (Cercospora zeae-maydis)
Fusarium ear rot (Fusarium spp.)
Your students and extension audiences will gain a clear understanding of the development and epidemiological spread of the diseases as well as measures to control them.
