Fusarium stalk rot (FSR) and anthracnose stalk rot (ASR), caused by Fusarium   spp. and Colletotrichum graminicola (Ces.) G.W. Wils. respectively, are the   two most important stalk diseases in maize which increase the incidence of   stalk lodging and reduce grain yield. The aim of the present study was to (1)   evaluate the effect of four cycles of recurrent selection in the Maksimir 3   Synthetic (M3S) maize population on ASR and FSR resistance and (2) to   investigate the correlation among the different disease rating methods. The   experiment included six M3S cycle populations per se and their test-crosses   with a single cross hybrid. ASR resistance was estimated on artificially   inoculated plant rows using three ratings (the number of infected internodes,   the number of internodes rotten more than 75% and evaluation of outer stalk   discoloration) whereas FSR resistance was estimated in artificially   inoculated rows as well as in naturally inoculated rows by rating severity of   disease symptoms on longitudinally cut stalks using the standard resistance   scale. The results of the present study showed that four cycles of selection   in the M3S maize population, conducted primarily for grain yield improvement,   did not significantly affect its resistance to both ASR and FSR. Among the   disease ratings a moderate positive correlation was found only between two   ASR resistance ratings (the number of infected internodes and the number of   internodes rotted more than 75%) in both population per se (r=0.49**) and   population test-crosses (r=0.56**)
