Evaluation of Inbred Lines for Yield and Resistance to Post-Flowering Stalk Rot Disease in Maize (Zea mays L.)

Anusha Galimudi, D. Bhadru, S. Vanisree, G. Usha Rani, B. Mallaiah & V. Sridhar · Journal of Experimental Agriculture International · 2026

Background: Post-Flowering Stalk Rot (PFSR) is a devastating disease of maize caused by a complex of fungal pathogens, predominantly Macrophomina phaseolina in India, especially under prolonged dry conditions. Developing high-yielding and PFSR-resistant inbred lines offers a sust...
