玉米瘤黑粉病的研究进展

The Advances in the Research of Common Smut in Maize

玉米瘤黑粉病是玉米生产的重要病害之一。系统地综述了国内外关于玉米瘤黑粉病的病原、症状和危害、防治措施、接种方法、评价标准、抗性资源和抗性遗传等方面的最新研究进展,并探讨了该领域研究中存在的主要问题。我国应加强对玉米瘤黑粉病的抗源鉴定与抗性遗传研究,为抗病育种及种质改良提供技术基础。

Common smut of maize, which is caused by the fungus （Ustilago maydis）, has been one of the serious diseases in maize. This paper introduced the disease effects on maize production, pathogen, protection measures, inoculation methods, evaluation standards, resistance resources and inheritance, and discussed the main problems in this field. It is suggested the germplasm identification of resistance to Common smut should be advanced in the future, which would provide technique base for maize breeding and germplasm improvement.
