Abstract

Effect of selection for ear rot and stalk rot resistance was tested in two flints and two dent maize synthetic varieties. Ear rot was observed after inoculation by Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum. Stalk rot was estimated at natural infection. The inoculation of maize ear was effective for differentiation of the tested plant material. The investigated synthetic varieties were characterized as susceptible to ear rot and weekly resistant to stalk rot. The lines have been selected with much higher resistance to the diseases, in relation to the initial synthetic varieties.
