By , Farms.com

It’s a creative attempt made by mazeplay.com artist who artistically sculpted a pro Romney image in a 25 acre corn field located in Northwest Ohio, about 4.5 miles from Toledo Express Airport. The “Go Romney” art was created in six hours and is an attempt by Wheeler and Ryan farms, the owners of the corn field to put a positive spotlight on the Romney campaign, while motivating people to vote. The artist – mazeplay.com donated his time for this cause. This isn’t the first time that Wheeler Farms have tried to make a political statement with their corn field, in 2008 they sculpted an image of Sarah Palin.

White rot, also known as sclerotinia, is a common agricultural fungal disease caused by various virulent species of Sclerotinia. It initially affects the root system (mycelium) before spreading to the aerial parts through the dissemination of spores.

Sclerotinia is undoubtedly a disease of major economic importance, and very damaging in the event of a heavy attack.

All these attacks come from the primary inoculum stored in the soil: sclerotia. These forms of resistance can survive in the soil for over 10 years, maintaining constant contamination of susceptible host crops, causing symptoms on the crop and replenishing the soil inoculum with new sclerotia.
