The lesions were initially present between leaf veins (Figure 1) but later extended beyond the veins, with a wavy, uneven shape rather than rectangular shape (Figure 2). The lesions varied in length from half an inch to several inches and occurred throughout the leaf blade (Figure 3). The lesions were translucent when held up to the light (Figure 4). These foliar symptoms were also seen in several other states. The disease, bacterial streak, caused by <em>Xanthomonas vasicola<\/em> pv. <em>vasculorum<\/em>, was confirmed for Texas by Texas A&amp;M AgriLife Extension Plant Pathology, the Great Plains Diagnostic Network Regional Lab, and the USDA.

These lesions are initially tan and later may appear gray as the fungus produces spores. Advanced symptoms of gray leaf spot are quite different from bacterial leaf streak (Figure 6). Because gray leaf spot is dependent on hot weather, high relative humidity, and moisture on the leaves, it may be more prevalent during flowering while bacterial leaf streak has been observed as early as V7 (seven leaf collar). In Texas corn growing areas other than the High Plains, gray leaf spot is a minor disease, if it occurs at all.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_916\" style=\"width: 406px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agrilife.org\/texasrowcrops\/files\/2016\/10\/Fig-6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-916\" class=\" wp-image-916\" src=\"https:\/\/agrilife.org\/texasrowcrops\/files\/2016\/10\/Fig-6-300x132.jpg\" alt=\"Figute 6.
