On the cover: Maximizing soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] yield requires effective management of Cercospora leaf blight (CLB), a significant foliar disease that can reduce productivity and grain quality.Here we see differences in the incidence and severity of CLB symptoms between germplasm lines (top), a soybean leaf with severe CLB symptoms (bottom left), soybean seed showing symptoms of a disease caused by the same species of CLB (bottom middle), and petioles of soybean plants exhibiting symptoms of CLB (bottom right).See, "Identifying and Managing Cercospora Leaf Blight in Soybean: From Scouting to Best Management Practices," by Mosely et al.
