Increased resistance to Ustilago zeae and Fusarium verticilliodes in maize inbred lines bred for Fusarium graminearum resistance

2009-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Preliminary field observations in our maize breeding nurseries indicated that breeding for improved resistance to gibberella ear rot (Fusarium graminearum) in maize may indirectly select for resistance to another ear disease, common smut (Ustilago zeae). To investigate this, we compared the disease severity ratings obtained on 189 maize inbreds, eight of which included our inbreds developed with selection for gibb...
