Distribution of maize lethal necrosis epidemics and its association with cropping systems and cultural practices in Ethiopia

2020-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Four hundred thirteen fields in five major maize growing regions of Ethiopia were surveyed to determine the prevalence, intensity and distribution of maize lethal necrosis (MLN) disease, and its associations with different maize cropping systems and cultural practices. The disease was most prevalent in South Nation, Nationality and Peoples (SNNP) region with 66.67% prevalence followed by Oromia region that had a p...
