Photosynthetic Stress-translocation balance concept of corn stalk rot

10/4/2016

 
​This concept of stalk rot was first published in 1977 (Proc.32nd Annu. Corn and Sorghum Res. Conf. 32:122-130 and followed by publication of evidence of kernel number influence in 1980 (Phytopathology 70:534-535).  This was a culmination of many studies done by other researchers in the 1950-1973 in which the physiology of the corn stalk was studied.  Among the notable publications are:
Senescence of pith cells in corn
BeMiller, J.N. and A.J. Pappelis. 1965. Phytopathology 55: 1237-1240
Miller, T.L. and O. Myers. 1974. Crop Sci. 14:215-217
Pappelis, A. J. 1965. Phytopathology 55: 623-625
Pappelis, A. J. 1970. Phytopathology 60:355-357
            Craig,J and A. L. Hooker.1961. Phytopathology 51:376-382
Photosynthesis rate and stalk rot
            Earley, E.B. Et al. 1966.Crop Sci 6(1):1-7
            Moss,D.N. and H. T. Stinson, Jr. 1961. Crop Sci. 1:416-418
Photosynthesis and root rot
            Crapo, N.L and R.G. Bowmer.1973. 01KOS 24:465-468
Leaf removal and stalk rot
            Littlefield, L.J. 1964. Plant Dis. Reptr. 48:169
            Gates, L. F. and C. G. Mortimore. 1972. Can. J. Plant Sci. 52:929-35
 
Science builds on science.  These studies and others done 40-60 years ago laid the groundwork for us to understand the dynamics of corn stalk rot as it occurs today.
