Abstract
Collections (63) of the Poaceae (37 spp.) were tested for susceptibility to K. zeae in growth chamber, greenhouse and field environments. Although 8 spp. became infected in the growth chamber, only 4 taxa, Zea diploperennis, Z. mays ssp. luxurians, Z. mays ssp. mexicana, and Z. perennis consistently showed typical symptoms in all 3 environments. These 4 taxa were considered to be new hosts of K. zeae.Keywords
