Corn diseases cause costly crop losses every year in Missouri through problems with germination and establishment of a stand and through damaging effects on the quality and size of the harvest. With more than 50 color photos, this publication is designed to help in the identification of diseases and to present management strategies. This manual is a part of the Integrated Pest Management series prepared by the Plant Protection Programs of the University of Missouri.
