Gene Action Controlling Gray Leaf Spot Resistance in Southern African Maize Germplasm

Gray leaf spot disease (GLS; caused by Cercospora zeae-maydis Tehon and Daniels) is among the major maize (Zea mays L.) production constraints in southern Africa. Maize is predominantly grown by small-scale farmers without fungicides; hence, there is need to develop GLS resistant hybrids. There is l...
