Fig. 8b. A range of reactions to Stewart’s wilt occurs among different corn lines. A: Movement of E. stewartii is limited in leaf tissue of lines with moderate resistance (top) compared to lines that are moderately susceptible (bottom). B: The degree of stunting and the amount of symptomatic leaf area differs substantially among 2-row plots of sweet corn hybrids that are susceptible (left), intermediate (middle), and resistant (right) to Stewart’s wilt.
