Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Partially resistant corn hybrids had significantly less tar spot than a susceptible hybrid.
- Intervention effect Partially resistant hybrids had 48.1% and 51.5% canopy greenness, significantly higher than 13.0% for the susceptible hybrid.
- Intervention effect Grain yields did not differ significantly among hybrids with or without fungicide.
- Intervention effect Fungicide treatments showed a general trend toward preserved yield potential.
- Recommendation The authors suggest partial resistance alone can manage tar spot.
- Recommendation The authors say genetics and yield potential knowledge is needed to maximize benefit from resistant hybrids and judicious fungicide.
