Click to collapse Descriptions Info

Cunningham (1945c) recorded this smut fungus on millet as Sphacelotheca cordobensis (Spelt.) Jackson; Brook, S.D. (1957) noted that as a result of recent overseas researches this fungus should be known as S. panici-leucophaei. The New Zealand record is based on a single collection from Ruakura near Hamilton. It is suggested that this outbreak was due to a seed-borne infection. It is of no economic importance.
