Downy Mildew 2018
Downy Mildew The recent weather pattern was a big relief for many dryland farmers in Texas, but for grape growers in the eastern half of the state and especially the Gulf Coast, tropical moisture in the summer can spell big problems with downy mildew. Downy is one of few fungal diseases that can cause serious damage all season long, and each year we hear at least one report of total crop loss from downy. The warm and wet conditions this week have been ideal for downy mildew infections so if you have already seen downy in your vineyard this year then there is an extremely high probability of a reoccurring infection. If you have not seen downy mildew yet this year, there is a still a very good chance that an infection can or already has occurred. Even a very small, unnoticeable infection can explode into an outbreak under the right conditions. Make sure that your vineyard is properly protected! Young berries are highly susceptible to direct infections by downy mildew, but become increasing resistant with age. However, downy can infect all of the green parts of a grapevine season long. Infections this time of the year can lead to significant defoliation which in turn can severely reduce fruit quality and vine health. Favorite vineyard defoliated from downy mildew infection. The foliar symptoms of downy can vary quite a bit based on cultivar and tissue age so know what to look for when you are scouting your vineyard. You can visit the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Viticulture & Enology webpage to view a photo gallery with more than fifty photos of downy mildew infections. -

Extension Plant Pathology Update
Extension Plant Pathology Update April 2013 Volume 1, Number 3 Edited by Jean Williams-Woodward Plant Disease Clinic Report for March 2013 By Ansuya Jogi and Jean Williams-Woodward The following tables consist of the commercial and homeowner samples submitted to the plant disease clinics in Athens and Tifton for March 2013 (Table 1) and one year ago in April 2012 (Table 2). Sample numbers are starting to pick up, but many of the problems we’ve seen in March were due to abiotic disorders such as cultural and/or environmental stresses (i.e. cold injury, past drought stress, poor root growth, etc.). Likely, the recent colder temperatures have slowed plant growth and plant disease development. We did have a few interesting samples, including cedar rusts and bulb mites on tulip (see pages 6 and 7). Looking ahead based upon April samples from last year and current weather conditions, we could expect more fungal leaf spot diseases, fire blight, rust, powdery mildew and downy mildew diseases.

Allerton Park and Conference Center
GUIDE TO THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS' DOCUMENTATION RELATED TO THE ALLERTON FAMILY AND ROBERT ALLERTON PARK AND CONFERENCE CENTER Compiled by Susan Enscore For the Robert Allerton Park and Conference Center University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign January 1991 Revised March 2004 Reformatted for Internet Posting, October, 2001 FOREWORD Since Robert Allerton gave his estate in Monticello to the University in 1946, the number and diversity of documents and related materials on this unique resource has grown steadily. By far the most ambitious and comprehensive attempt to identify and catalog major items is represented in this document which is the product of over a year's effort by Susan Enscore. Her work was carefully guided by Professors Maynard Brichford and William Maher, the University's archivist and assistant archivist. As interim co-directors, we commissioned this project to learn more about how much "Allertonia" exists and where it can be found. The size of this report confirms our suspicions that a wealth of useful material is available. A great deal of effort was involved in assembling this impressive reference document. It identifies the variety of documents that exist and their location, as well as serving as the basis for further expansion and update of the records of Robert Allerton Park and Conference Center. Researchers interested in examining the history associated with this gift will find this a valuable reference source. We appreciate all of Susan's work and the enthusiasm with which she approached the task. We thank Professors Brichford and Maher who added their experience to producing a well-organized and comprehensive document. -
