Southern Corn Leaf Blight: A Story Worth Retelling

2017-07-01

Abstract excerpt

CORE IDEAS: A history of corn leaf blight and its host. A synopsis of southern corn leaf blight. Lessons for the future. The southern corn (Zea mays L.) leaf blight (SCLB) epidemic of 1970–1971 was one of the most costly disease outbreaks to affect North American agriculture, destroying 15% of the crop at a cost of US$1.0 billion (≥$6.0 billion by 2015 standards.). It resulted from an over reliance on cytoplasmic...
