Pathogenicity and toxigenicity of Fusarium verticillioides isolates collected from maize roots, stems and ears in South Africa

2018-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Fusarium verticillioides is most frequently associated with maize in South Africa. It colonises maize roots, stems and ears endophytically and causes diseases such as Fusarium ear rot (FER) and stalk rot.
