Fusarium ear blight is a disease that affects corn and wheat crops. This disease is caused by fungi belonging to the Fusarium genus. The pathogen infects the ears of the crops causing a range of symptoms that cause damage to the plant and result in reduced yields. Symptoms include discoloration, wilting, and mold growth. Other synonyms for Fusarium ear blight include head scab, wheat scab, scab, and ear rot. Identifying these synonyms is important for farmers and researchers looking to prevent and control the spread of this disease. Various strategies such as crop rotation, fungicide applications, and resistant strains of crops can be implemented as part of the control measures.
