Abstract
Charcoal rot was first reported in South Africa when found on
sunflower in 1969, but had already been detected on maize
and sorghum by that time. The first incidence of this disease
on soya beans was reported in 1982. Maize and sorghum are
frequently planted in rotation with sunflower and soya beans.
