Evaluating Azoxystrobin Seed Coating Against Maize Late Wilt Disease Using a Sensitive qPCR-Based Method

Harpophora maydis, a phytopathogenic fungus, causes late wilt, a severe vascular maize disease characterized by relatively rapid wilting of maize plants near fertilization. The disease is currently controlled using resistant varieties. Here, we evaluated seed coating efficiency with azoxystrobin aga...

520 |a Harpophora maydis, a phytopathogenic fungus, causes late wilt, a severe vascular maize disease characterized by relatively rapid wilting of maize plants near fertilization. The disease is currently controlled using resistant varieties. Here, we evaluated seed coating efficiency with azoxystrobin against H. maydis in a series of in vitro and in vivo trials. A real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)-based method was developed and proved to be a sensitive, accurate tool for monitoring H. maydis DNA inside infected seeds, sprouts, and tissues of mature plants. In the early growth stages, the chemical coating drastically reduced the pathogen DNA prevalence in host tissues and minimized the suppressing effect on the plants' biomass and development. In an infested field, the qPCR assay identified the pathogen 20 days after seeding, up to a month before conventional PCR detection. In the resistant fodder maize cultivar 32D99, which showed only minor disease symptoms, the seed coating blocked fungal progression and increased cob and plant weight by 39 and 60%, respectively. Nevertheless, this treatment was unable to protect a sensitive maize hybrid, cultivar Prelude, at the disease wilting breakout (60 days after sowing). These results encourage further examination of azoxystrobin and other fungicides in the field using the qPCR detection method to evaluate their efficiency
