  • 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.

  • Universal Classification of Plant Protection Products According to Their Modes of Action and Their Chemical Structures
    Version 5 – February 2018 Universal classification of plant protection products according to their modes of action and their chemical structures Opening remark: Tables presented in this document are in French. Nevertheless, this explicative introduction is written in English. A full English version of this classification is under progress. We apologize for this temporary inconvenience to English-speaking readers. Pest, disease or weed control involves plant protection products (PPPs), of natural or synthetic origin. Independent classifications of PPPs have been proposed according to their category (fungicides: FRAC; acaricides-insecticides: IRAC; herbicides: HRAC or WSSA). They do not take into account the fact that highly different organisms may share common biochemical targets that can be inhibited by substances with the same modes of action. Furthermore, biocontrol solutions are often partially represented in these classifications, whereas many are registered in France and their use will gradually increase in the coming years. Some of them may face the adaptation of targeted pests, which justifies their inclusion in this nomenclature of PPPs. The unified classification of PPPs presented in this document takes these characteristics into account and assigns one single code to the modes of action registered against plant pathogens, pests (insects and mites) and / or weeds. It includes: ● A unified classification valid for all PPPs, showing the correlation between the R4P, RACs and WSSA group codes. ● A comprehensive list of fungicides, insecticides-acaricides and herbicides classified according to their modes of action, including their general uses, their dates of registration in France, and the resistance cases reported in France and globally ● A classification of active substances affecting the toxicity of PPPs.
