Fig. 2. Field symptoms of Stewart’s wilt of maize caused by Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii. Disease symptoms included systemic wilt (A and C) and leaf blight (B and D), where the latter symptoms were observed more commonly in this study. Wilt symptoms were observed in Gotvand County in Khuzestan Province in September 2021 (A and C).

Editor’s Pick: Results from Hosna Alvandi et al. confirmed the occurrence of #Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii causing Stewart’s wilt of #maize in Iran. Learn more: https://doi.org/10.1094/PDIS-03-25-0509-SR

Gillreath-Brown & Kohler 2024. Low-frequency July temperature anomaly reconstruction for the southwestern United States as defined in inset (based on Gillreath-Brown et al. 2024:Figure 5). The extent of the SWUS inset is approximately: xmin = −112.82, xmax = −105.52, ymin = 32.66, ymax = 38.90. Blue line fitted by loess (local polynomial regression fitting) smoothing (α = 0.15). Negative values on the y-axis indicate temperatures cooler than the 1961–1990 average; the horizontal line at 0 marks the average July temperature from 1961–1990. Negative values on x-axis indicate years BC.

How did El Niño and La Niña cycles shape Pueblo history? By driving maize farming success in wet years and hardship in dry ones according to Gillreath-Brown & Kohler. buff.ly/fI7RgtO
