Fig. 3From: A new and effective method to induce infection of Phyllachora maydis into corn for tar spot studies in controlled environmentsPhenotypic representation of the development of Phyllachora maydis 19 dai (7 days after the first stroma formed) in four corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids (H1 to H4; Table 1) (Table 5 and Fig. 4). All hybrids were susceptible to P. maydis, and the number of stromata occasionally varied among them (Table 5 and Fig. 4). Hybrid H3’ shows a senescent corn leaf as occasionally seen with stromata surrounded by green halos. Bar = 2 cmBack to article page
