-SOUTHERN-co LEA
BLI(HT
Since the beginning of August
there has been considerable in- .
terest in a new disease found '
throughout the - corn growing
areas of. the .U.S.. and Ontario.
Southern leaf blight is not really.
new but onethatwas previously'
found only in the southern part
of the U.S.. Evidently,: a new
strain, of f the fungus, -- the "T"
strain _ much more 'virulent and
therefore able to infect a larger.
'area -hag . developed and ' blown
northward into Ontario. ' It causes
damage not only to the leaves but
also to the husks and cobs which
makes it, quite _destructive.:.
The'. disease should not be con-
fused with ., yellow leaf blight
which causes lesions the' same
side as southern: (W :7172-
long) nor . should it be confused
with. . northern leaf blight which
has . muchlarger . lesions (2 - 4
inches long). .These two diseases
have, been, present in Ontario for
a , number of years and. therefore
• ye owis spots. on t e . eaves • in
late August_nd' September did
not necessarily ind;pate, southern'
leaf blight:.
Southern leaf . blight has been -
`� e . w.� exas^male�..sterile�
cytoplasm 'which • hybrid corn pro-
.: ducers.use to bypass hand detas-
seling , of corn. This.` means that
only •' hybrids produced by ' hand
detasseling ;or other' sources ' of
male sterility will he . safe ' to
'plant, from , the standpoint ' of
this disease, in 1971,
Indications are that 60 = 70% of
the' hybrid seed sold in' Ontario
are ' produced . using .Texas • •male
" sterility, As a .,.result,., material
resistant to the 'disease will be
in short supply .and' more expen-
sive. in 1971. It should be kept in
A..i
minor- case of, the disease con-
firmed. in this area last year.
Every . grower concerned with
this problem should check with.
seed . company representatives : to
-determine which 'varieties con-
tain the Texas male sterile char-
acteristics' ' and what the added
cost will be for resistant, material. ,
On this basis' then the increased
cost—will-have. - to-. beJ-weighed.
against the ' chance 'of, having
the disease next year.

This•hasbeen a good corn year.
A number of -farmers -are -going -
to e .picking corn because they,
haft a few acres in. . excess of
their silage requirements. .
One storage alternative, which
is new this, year, is. to treat grain
corn withLone.nLthA cnmmerciallyL'
available preservatives and store
it as high moisture corn. The
main . storage , requirement of
grain treated in this manner is
`protection from gram and sno •" str
that thepreservative does not get
washed off.. This feature allows a
farmer to pile his grain on the
barn floor or in some other .place
under cover and thus avoid the.
fixed costs -.of a permanent, struc-
ure amay not need -again.
