Exserohilum turcicum
TaxID: 93612
Basic Information
Exserohilum turcicum
Northern Corn Leaf Blight, northern corn leaf blight
Setosphaeria turcica (anamorph Exserohilum turcicum; formerly known as Helminthosporium turcicum) is the causal agent of northern corn leaf blight in maize. It is a serious fungal disease prevalent in cooler climates and tropical highlands wherever corn is grown. It is characterized by large cigar shaped necrotic lesions that develop on the leaves due to the polyketide metabolite monocerin.

PRJNA1348784 SRX31501448 SRP655899 fungi RNA-seq of Exserohilum turcicum This experiment analyzed transcriptional responses of Exserohilum turcicum to 0.0025 mg/mL dihydrosanguinarine. Two groups : treatment (with dihydrosanguinarine) and control (without). RNA-seq was performed to identify differential expression. {'host': 'plant', 'sample_type': 'whole organism', 'geo_loc_name': 'China: Heilongjiang', 'biosamplemodel': 'Microbe, viral or environmental', 'collection_date': '2025-07-29T10:00:04Z'} |
