【 摘 要 】

Diseases and sensitivity to P450-metabolized herbicides can limit the production of high quality sweet corn.Separate studies were done to determine the probability of exceeding 1% and 5% incidence of Stewart’s wilt on sweet corn with different reactions to Pantoea stewartii, the effect of maize dwarf mosaic (MDM) on eight foliar diseases, and the effect of hybrid CYP genotype on sweet corn yield following postemergence applications of mesotrione or nicosulfuron.Stewart’s disease can be forecasted using the Stevens, Stevens-Boewe, or Iowa State forecasts.These forecasts assume a high degree of host susceptibility.Host resistance affects the incidence and severity of disease, and therefore can affect the accuracy forecasts of Stewart’s disease.Levels of host resistance affected the incidence of systemic seedling wilt within ranges of winter temperatures used by each of the forecasts.Frequency distributions of Stewart’s wilt incidence on moderate and resistant hybrids did not differ among the three temperature ranges above -2.8ºC (27ºF).Conversely, distributions of Stewart’s wilt incidence on susceptible hybrids differed among each of the four ranges of winter temperature from the Stevens-Boewe forecast (i.e., >0.6ºC, -1.1º to 0.6ºC, -2.8º to -1.1ºC, and
