Anthracnose Common Foliage Disease of Deciduous Trees
Anthracnose Common foliage disease of deciduous trees Pathogen—Anthracnose diseases are caused by a group of morphologically similar fungi that produce cushion-shaped fruiting structures called acervuli (fig. 1). Many of the fungi that cause anthracnose diseases are known for their asexual stage (conidial), but most also have sexual stages. Taxonomy is con- tinually being updated, so scientific names can be confusing. A list of common anthracnose diseases in the Rocky Mountain Region and their hosts is provided in table 1. Hosts—A variety of deciduous trees are susceptible to anthracnose diseases, including ash, basswood, elm, maple, oak, sycamore, and walnut. These diseases are common on shade trees. Marssonina blight of aspen (see the Marssonina Leaf Blight entry in this guide for more information) is an anthracnose-type disease. The fungi that cause anthracnose diseases are host-specific such that one particular fungus can generally only parasitize one host genus. For example, Apiognomonia errabunda causes anthracnose only on species of ash, and A. quercina causes anthracnose only on oaks. Figure 1.

The study was conducted under natu- ral environmental conditions in a 5-8-year-old walnut collection orchard of the Fruit Growing Institute – Plovdiv, during the period 2006-2010. The evaluation of the attack produced by these pathogens was carried out on different organs leaves and nuts in two periods of the year (June and October). All the studied cultivars were distributed in 6 different levels of susceptibility to a given pathogen based on the degree of attack. The article presents data on the sensitivity of the studied walnut cultivars to the attack to G. leptostyla (Fr.) and X. arboricola pv. juglandis (Pierce) Dye and discusses the results obtained. Key words: Juglans regia, cultivars, leaf spot, walnut blight, infection Introduction The English (Persian) walnut (Juglans regia L., Juglans andaceae) is attacked by great number of diseases.

Inhibition of Ophiognomonia Clavigignenti-Juglandacearum by Reagent Grade Naphthoquinones
INHIBITION OF OPHIOGNOMONIA CLAVIGIGNENTI- JUGLANDACEARUM BY JUGLANS SPECIES BARK EXTRACTS M.E. Ostry and M. Moore1 Abstract.—A rapid and reliable screening technique is needed for selecting trees with resistance to butternut canker. In a laboratory assay, reagent grade naphthoquinones and crude bark extracts of Juglans species variously inhibited spore germination and growth of Ophiognomonia clavigignenti-juglandacearum, the causal fungus of butternut canker. The in vitro disc assay revealed that the level of inhibition varied by naphthoquinones and by extracts from different species of Juglans and selections of butternut. Ranking the trees by the level of inhibition approximated their level of resistance observed in past assays based on challenging the trees with the fungus through wounds and their response to natural infection in the field. Butternut is known to produce naphthoquinone compounds with antimicrobial activity. These compounds, if produced at different concentrations, may account for the observed range of inhibition levels in the assay and variation in canker resistance among selections of butternut in the field. This assay may have potential use for selecting butternut with disease resistance for conservation and restoration purposes. Concern over the rapid loss of butternut (Juglans tests (Orchard et al. 1982; Ostry and Moore 2007, cinerea) to butternut canker caused by Ophiognomonia 2008). Among the species tested, heartnut (Juglans clavigignenti-juglandacearum (OCJ) (=Sirococcus ailantifolia var. cordiformis) and black -
