塞尔维亚. Corn reddening was observed for the first time in Serbia during 1957. After that, it occurred periodically, mainly in the region of Banat. In 2002 and 2003, severe corn reddening occurred in late July/early August. Initial symptoms were the occurrence of a red-violet colour on the leaves, leaf sheaths, husks and the bare portion of internodes. The symptoms typically appeared at the milk stage of grain maturity, and the discoloration was the most intensive at the top leaves, around the main vein and along of the edges, from leaf base to tip. Soon after the occurrence of the symptoms, the affected plants wilted, the foliage dried rapidly, the red pigmentation disappeared for a greater part and finally plant died off. The ears were underdeveloped and gummous and kernels were shriveled and unfilled. Clashing opinions are still exists on what is the main cause of corn reddening.
