A 2021 epidemic of tar spot of corn caused by Phyllachora maydis led to significant yield losses in the midwestern United States and Ontario, Canada. Uniform fungicides trials consisting of nine foliar fungicides applied at the tassel (VT) or silk (R1) growth stage were evaluated for tar spot management in five field trials in the midwestern United States and Ontario, Canada, in 2021. All nine foliar fungicide treatments significantly reduced tar spot severity, but only Delaro Complete (prothioconazole + fluopyram + trifloxystrobin), Revytek (mefentrifluconazole + pyraclostrobin + fluxapyroxad), and Veltyma (mefentrifluconazole + pyraclostrobin) protected yield compared with the nontreated control.
