Abstract: Head smut, caused by the fungus Sphacelotheca reiliana (Kühn) Clint., is a disease of sorghum, sudangrass, and corn. The symptoms of the disease on these plants are described and compared. Findings of California field surveys since 1957 are reported. Varietal susceptibilities of host plants are indicated where known, with results of recent field tests, notably on the immunity of Lahoma sudangrass. Attempts to infect johnsongrass were negative.
