Abstract A new distribution map is provided for Fusarium andiyazi Marasas, Rheeder, Lampr., K.A. Zeller and J.F. Leslie. (Sordariomycetes: Hypocreales: Nectriaceae). Hosts: sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum), rice (Oryza sativa), maize (Zea mays) and sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor). Information is given on the geographical distribution in Africa (Burkina Faso, Egypt, Ethiopia, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania), Asia (China, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, India, Tamil Nadu, Iran, Malaysia, Korea Republic, Syria, Vietnam), Europe (Italy), North America (Mexico, USA, Colorado, Nebraska), Oceania (Australia, New South Wales, Queensland) and South America (Argentina).

Los bananos y plátanos (Musa sp) se cultivan en más de 120 países alrededor del mundo y suministran una importante fuente de carbohidratos para más de 400 millones de personas en países tropicales, representan el cuarto cultivo de mayor importancia después del maíz (Zea mays), trigo (Triticum aestivum) y arroz (Oryza sativa). En México, se cultivan en 15 Estados, la variedad de bananos y plátanos que se cultivan  es amplia, dentro de ellas destacan los bananos como el Plátano Tabasco o Roatán, Enano Gigante, Criollo, Valery, Dominico, Manzano y los plátanos Macho, Morado y Pera, entre otros. Veracruz, ocupa el tercer lugar a nivel nacional en su, después de Chiapas y Tabasco, produciéndose en zonas en las que el cultivo es una de las principales actividades.Palabras clave: cultivo de plátano; Veracruz; países tropicales; Tlapacoyan Abstract Bananas and plantains are grown in more than 120 countries around the world, provides an important source of carbohydrates for more than 400 million people in tropical countries, is the fourth most important crop after maize (Zea mays), wheat (Triticum aestivum) and rice (Oryza sativa). In Mexico, are grown in 15 states, banana and plantain cultivars that are grown is wide, within them we can found bananas as Tabasco or Roatán, Giant Dwarf, Macho, Criollo, Valery, Dominico, Manzano and plantains as Morado and Pera between others. Veracruz, is third in banana production, after Chiapas and Tabasco, taking place in areas where this crop is one of the main activities.Keywords: banana cultivation; Veracruz; tropical countries; Tlapacoyan

Abstract A description is provided for Khuskia oryzae. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Plurivorous, especially on monocotyledons and particularly on Oryza sativa, Saccharum officinarum, Zea mays and Musa spp. DISEASE: Causes cob and stalk rot of maize (11: 711; 12: 20; 13: 299, 571; 43, 3205; 44, 2123) and on sorghum as stem and grain infection (43, 727); it is common on banana debris in the western hemisphere and can cause discolouration in rice irain. On maize, symptoms develop towards maturity mostly on the shanks, husks and ears but also on the stems and stalks, where blackish, shallow lesions can occur. Ears may snap off at harvest; the cob becomes shredded and rotten through disintegration of the parenchyma, sparse mycelium and sporulation develop in the furrows between kernels and on the seed itself. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread, principally as a member of the saprophytic flora on plant debris in warmer areas. TRANSMISSION: Infection of seed reduces its quality rather than causing the fungus to be really seed-borne. A diurnal periodicity has been reported for Nigrospora sphaerica and K. oryzae, with a peak at 0800-1000 hr, in the tropics (35: 383; 41: 242). Violent spore discharge, a rare phenomenon in the hyphomycetes, has been described for N. sphaerica (31: 56).

Ten commercial soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars were evaluated for reaction to over-the-top applications of two rates of 3′,4′-dichloropropionanilide (propanil) at the growth stage when three nodes on the main stem had completely unrolled leaves. Propanil, a herbicide commonly applied to rice [Oryza sativa L.] for control of grass weeds, was applied at 0.56 and 3.36 kg/ha; the higher rate is commonly used for control of weeds in rice. ‘Davis’, ‘Hood’, and ‘York’ soybean cultivars were damaged more by propanil than ‘Hill’, ‘Lee’, ‘Lee 68’, ‘Pickett’, ‘Semmes’, ‘Bragg’, or ‘Dare’ when damage was measured by reductions in seed yield and stand and by leaf injury.
