Inheritance of resistance in maize to gray leaf spot disease was investigated using plant ratings from three experiments in naturally occurring field epiphytotics: Generation mean analysis of four populations, diallel analysis of all possible single crosses, and correlation comparison between 16 inbreds per se and their crosses with a common parent. Plants were rated just prior to leaf death on a plot basis utilizing a scale of 1 (resistant) to 5 (susceptible). In the generation mean
