Abstract
A historical review is given of the breeding for resistance to streak disease in Maize. The latest advances in this respect in South Africa include the production of a commercial streak tolerant three-way hybrid, S.A. 31, in which the resistance to streak is derived from P x H maize. New sources of resistance have been found in Mexican maize, the inbreds Urg. 54 and Mex. 37-5 being the most promising.
