Fundamentals of Caneberry Production Workshop Understanding Pathogen Biology & Diversity ESTABLISHMENT CONSIDERATIONS OUTLINE for Novel Control of Plant Diseases Fundamentals of Caneberry Production Workshop Understanding Pathogen Biology & Diversity ESTABLISHMENT CONSIDERATIONS OUTLINE for Novel Control of Plant Diseases https://berrydealer.com/blackberries/ Establishment Considerations Crown gall, nematodes, and viruses are best controlled through prevention or elimination prior to planting Crown gall is caused by soil-borne bacteria which result in tumorous growth on plant crowns and root systems Nematodes directly destroy roots and increase crown gall and root rot; dagger nematodes spread caneberry viruses Viruses reduce vigor, yield, fruit quality; cause plant death Martin et al. 2013 Martin et al. 2013 Martin et al. 2013 Martin et al. 2013 Many viral diseases affect caneberries including Blackberry Yellow Vein Disease (above) Understanding Pathogen Biology & Diversity ESTABLISHMENT CONSIDERATIONS OUTLINE for Novel Control of Plant Diseases https://berrydealer.com/blackberries/ Viruses and Crown Gall • Since viruses and crown gall can be introduced through propagation, clean planting stock is essential. • Tissue-cultured plants are more likely free of pathogens • Wounds are required for crown gall infection. Every effort should be made to avoid wounding roots and lower stems. • Once infected, plants cannot be cured of viruses. 1. Set out only disease-free plants. 2. Remove wild blackberries growing nearby that can harbor caneberry viruses 3. Rapidly remove symptomatic plants Understanding Pathogen Biology & Diversity ESTABLISHMENT CONSIDERATIONS OUTLINE for Novel Control of Plant Diseases https://berrydealer.com/blackberries/ Nematodes • Nematode control, especially of dagger nematode, is essential to prevent virus spread; even low levels of dagger nematodes are dangerous. • Prior to land prep, all potential sites should be sampled for root-knot, root-lesion, dagger and other nematodes. • Fumigation prior to planting is often recommended to reduce/prevent nematode issues. • Chemical controls include: Pic-Clor 60, Paladin, Vapam, Sectagon 42, K-PAM HL, and Telone II.

Introduction been assigned to them. The form on black raspberry is Orange rust is a disease of black berry and black caused by a fungus known as Arthuriomyces peckianus, raspberry. Purple raspberry may also become infected, while the form more common on blackberry is but red raspberry is resistant. This rust occurs in two known as Gymnoconia nitens. Orange rust is one of different forms with very similar symptoms. One the more serious diseases of susceptible brambles in form has a long cycle and affects mainly black the Northeast. It should not be confused with the late raspberry, and the other has a short cycle and affects leaf rust disease of red raspberries. mainly blackberry. Gymnoconia peckiana was the name originally given to the fungus that causes orange rust, but some morphological differences were eventually identified between the two forms, and now separate scientific names have Figure 2: Sporulation on lower leaf surface of black raspberry (June in New York) (provided by S. Jensen, Cornell University) Symptoms and Signs Lower leaf surfaces become covered with blister-like Figure 1: Symptoms on upper leaf surface of black raspberry masses of yellow-orange spores by late May or early (provided by S.

In addition, heavily infected leaves may die, and infected shoots will be weak, spindly and have very few, if any thorns.

  • Crop Profile for Caneberries in California
    Crop Profile for Caneberries in California Prepared: February, 2000 General Production Information ● Caneberries is the general term for Rubus spp., which are commonly called raspberries and blackberries. When picked, raspberries leave the receptacle behind resulting in a cup-shaped fruit. On the other hand, blackberries retain the receptacle within the fruit and the fruit are not cup-shaped. Raspberries are in Rubus subgenus Idaeobatus and blackberries are in the subgenus Eubatus. There are also hybrids between raspberries and blackberries such as loganberry, boysenberry, and ollalieberry (5). In this profile raspberries, blackberries, and hybrids are considered together except where noted. Where they are separated, raspberries are one group and blackberries and hybrids are another group. ● In 1997, 19,400,000 pounds of raspberries were produced on 1,900 acres in California. The average yield was 10,200 pounds per acre. The average price was $1.41 per pound and the total crop value was $27,330,000 (2). ● Blackberries were produced on 714 acres in California in 1997 (1). ● In 1997, 2,500,000 pounds of boysenberries were produced on 270 acres in California. The average yield was 9,100 pounds per acre. The average price was $0.67 per pound and the total crop value was $1,639,000. The 1997 crop value was down from a high in 1988 of $3,814,000 when the price per pound was $1.82. In 1988, 2,100,000 pounds of boysenberries were produced on 400 acres and yield was 5,300 pounds per acre (2). ● In 1996, California ranked third in raspberry production, producing 26% of the nation’s raspberries.

Characterising plant pathogen communities and their environmental drivers at a national scale A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Andreas Makiola Lincoln University, New Zealand 2019 General abstract Plant pathogens play a critical role for global food security, conservation of natural ecosystems and future resilience and sustainability of ecosystem services in general. Thus, it is crucial to understand the large-scale processes that shape plant pathogen communities. The recent drop in DNA sequencing costs offers, for the first time, the opportunity to study multiple plant pathogens simultaneously in their naturally occurring environment effectively at large scale. In this thesis, my aims were (1) to employ next-generation sequencing (NGS) based metabarcoding for the detection and identification of plant pathogens at the ecosystem scale in New Zealand, (2) to characterise plant pathogen communities, and (3) to determine the environmental drivers of these communities. First, I investigated the suitability of NGS for the detection, identification and quantification of plant pathogens using rust fungi as a model system.

  • Crop Profile for Brambles in Tennessee
    Crop Profile for Brambles in Tennessee Prepared: August, 2006 General Production Information ● Tennessee is not ranked in U.S. bramble production. ● Currently, Tennessee only produces a minor amount of brambles and produces less than one percent of total U.S. product. ● The total bramble acreage grown in Tennessee consists of: ❍ Blackberries: 250 acres ❍ Raspberries: 50 acres ● Value of brambles to Tennessee’s economy during 2005 was: ❍ Blackberries: $1.5 million ❍ Raspberries: $250,000 ● Bramble production within Tennessee is scattered across the state. Raspberries and Blackberries both belong to the genus Rubus of the family Rosaceae. There are several species of both. Raspberries can be distinguished from blackberries because the fruit of the raspberry can be readily removed from the receptacle when ripe (the white, cone-shaped base of the fruit bearing stem). The fruit of the blackberry is not easily removed. Most species of raspberries are edible, although a few are nearly inedible because they are dry and insipid (have little flavor). Commercial raspberries belong to two species; red raspberries and black raspberries. Black raspberries should not be confused with blackberries, a different group of species. Commercially produced blackberries may be thorned or thornless types. Thorned blackberry varieties generally yield from 10,000 to 11,000 lbs per acre with thorneless types yielding from 8,000 to 10,000 lbs per acre. Shawnee is a thorned type which is super sensitive to rosette disease. Apache, Navahoe, Triple Crown and Black Satin are thornless types. Navahoe is sensitive to orange rust, where Black Satin is resistant to anthracnose. Generally, raspberries grown in Tennessee yield from 4,000 to 5,000 lbs per acre.
