Use of resistance elicitors to reduce Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin accumulation in maize
2012-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Fusarium ear rot of maize, caused by Fusarium verticillioides, reduces grain yield and quality and contaminates it with mycotoxins (fumonisin). As maize cultivars with complete resistance to Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination have not been identified, and since the disease is difficult to control by conventional means, novel strategies for disease control and fumonisin reduction are required. One such st...
