I just noticed these spots on my corn plant. They’re only on a few leaves. What are they from and is there anything I can do to treat it? I’m already using a systemic treatment on it.

A you share a photo a bit further away? Does it wipe off? How’s the texture of the spots?  
It does look like it could be powdery mildew. These plants are prone to get this fungal infection.
