Abstract

A leaf disease of maize incited by Curvularia pallescens, is characterized by small, round, abundant lesions which may or may not be surrounded by pellucid area. C. pallescens is capable of inciting “ pellucid ring spot” on certain cultivars. Artificial field inoculations indicate that the inbred line CM 300 is resistant inasmuch as only flecks are produced in which the pathogen is not able to sporulate.
