  • This disease is most common in areas of high humidity. (clemson.edu)
  • When excess moisture or high humidity is available, fungal life cycles are shorter, and larger numbers of spores are produced. (agfax.com)
  • The temperature range of 20-25°C and high humidity levels, over 85%, are optimal for the germination of the spores. (pestsdiseases.com)
  • In the USA, the wide use of inbreds W64A was associated with the damage from this disease in areas with high humidity and cool summers. (cornjournal.com)
  • Eventually, the disease may cause discoloration of the inside of stalks to pink or salmon. (unl.edu)
  • It also attacks developing shoots and expanding leaves. (heartofdixiebonsai.com)
