The gray leaf spot caused by Cercospora zeina has become a serious disease in maize in China. The isolates of C. zeina from Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Hubei, Chongqing, Gansu, and Shaanxi were collected. From those, 127 samples were used for genetic diversity analysis based on inter-simple sequence r...
