Early and foggy extension work this morning in the Central Valley.

Recent rain & #ElNino conditions create favorable conditions for aerial Phytophthora pathogen. Although it doesn't kill the #almond tree, the disease causes branch dieback that requires significant additional work & expense for growers. #CAwx @FloTrouillas

Check out our latest article discussing aerial Phytophthora diseases of almond. With strengthening El Niño conditions and the possibility of a recurring outbreak, we provide novel insights into disease biology and management strategies.

Cytospora canker is a severe disease of stone fruit worldwide. Infection commonly develop at pruning wounds or sunburn lesions. More info about the current taxonomy of Cytospora species associated with fruit and nut crops can be found here: https://t.co/yqaCXvMUIC

Calosphaeria canker of sweet cherry occurs worldwide and can be easily diagnosed in the field by removing the bark periderm and looking for the typical perithecia of Calosphaeria pulchella occurring in circinate groups. ⁦@ucanr⁩ ⁦@UCIPM⁩

Last week we discussed all things fungal trunk disease, Phytophthora and Monterey decline during field walks in South Australia, Sunraysia and Riverina 🌳 We compared the Californian and Australian experience with @FloTrouillas and Dr Len Tesoriero

@AqleemAbbas It looks like you are dealing with bacterial canker (Pseudomonas) on some of these images (gumming in the upper trunk). Gumming at the tree base could also be bacterial canker, or possibly Phytophthora. It also look like trees suffered rodent or mechanical injuries at the base...

Bacterial blast caused by Pseudomonas syringae affecting blossoms of highly susceptible cherry trees in Tulare County, California

@RLVoumard Hi Rodney - very little blast in almond this year

[Florent Trouillas @FloTrouillas]

@mibustam That’s right.. a wet year and cold temperatures.
