This here is a genetically susceptible 113 day variety to fusarium kernal rot. This is a nasty little fungus that produces all sorts of mycotoxins that can give any mammal that consumes it a belly ache or even death. It’s easily identifiable by the white streaks in causes in the kernals.

Corn smut (Ustilago maydis), on the other hand, is supposed to be tasty.
