Abstract
The white spot is a major disease of corn nowadays. Genetic resistance and fungicide application are considered the most important procedures to control this disease and the most used by producers.. However, reports of low efficiency of control with different chemical fungicides have been frequent, which has generated doubts about its effectiveness in controlling the disease in the field. In the present study, four experiments were conducted in field conditions, using cultivars with different levels of resistance or susceptibility to maize white spot. The efficiency of different chemical groups of fungicides in the management of maize white spot was evaluated using different number of applications. The results demonstrated that the strobilurin fungicide group presented the greatest efficiency in controlling the disease. The fungicides triazole, carbendazim and thiophanate and the antibiotics oxytetracycline and kasugamycin showed low control efficiency.
