Stability of maize resistance to the ear rots caused by <i>Fusarium graminearum</i> and <i>F. verticillioides</i> in Argentinian and Canadian environments

Sources of resistance to <i>Fusarium</i> spp. are needed to develop maize hybrids resistant to the accumulation of fungal mycotoxins in the grain. In a search for resistant germplasm in 1999 and 2000, a set of Argentinian maize populations was evaluated in Ottawa, Canada, for resistance...

description Sources of resistance to <i>Fusarium</i> spp. are needed to develop maize hybrids resistant to the accumulation of fungal mycotoxins in the grain. In a search for resistant germplasm in 1999 and 2000, a set of Argentinian maize populations was evaluated in Ottawa, Canada, for resistance to ear rots after inoculation with local isolates of <i>Fusarium verticillioides</i> and <i>F. graminearum</i>. Sixteen of these populations, varying in observed resistance levels, were re-evaluated in 2003 and 2004 in Pergamino, Argentina, using local isolates of the same fungi. Conidial suspensions of each fungal species were inoculated into the silk channel of primary ears. Disease severity was assessed after physiological maturity using a scale based on the percentage of visibly infected kernels. Genotype effect was more important than genotype-by-fungal species or genotype-by-fungal species-by-environment interaction effects. In addition, disease severity levels associated with each fungal species were positively correlated (P < 0.05) (r = 0.90, r = 0.81, r = 0.87 and r = 0.53, in Ottawa 1999 and 2000, and Pergamino 2003 and 2004, respectively). Populations ARZM 01107, ARZM 07138, ARZM 10041, ARZM 13031, ARZM 16002 and Pora INTA exhibited the highest and most stable resistance to both species. Considering that disease resistance exhibited low specificity to the environment and to the fungal species in evaluations conducted in a wide range of environments and with fungal isolates collected from different hemispheres, the most resistant populations are potential sources of genes for stable resistance to these <i>Fusarium</i> spp.
