Abstract A description is provided for Sphaeropsis tumefaciens. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: On Citrus aurantifolia and other species of Citrus (sweet orange, rough lemon and ortanique). DISEASES: Knot of lime (Citrus aurantifolia) and other species of Citrus including sweet orange, rough lemon and ortanique. The so-called knots are gall-like growths, rounded (1-7 cm diam.) but sometimes elongated, on the stems. These swellings begin by being covered with normal bark which changes to a whitish, rough, cork-like tissue, this extends in size, becoming fissured, with mueh enlarged woody tissue. The knots are firmly attached and may occur in large numbers over considerable lengths of stem which may be girdled and killed. The surface of the knot may become soft and crumbling, but it is hard inside, where black streaking indicates the presence of mycelium. A gall may form up to 40 shoots, from multiple bud formation, some over 1 m long and often themselves bearing knots or galls (witches' broom effect). These abnormal shoots eventually die. Knots can occur on the trunk and severe infection leads to death of the tree. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Possible confusion with other similar disease-like symptoms in citrus (and because considerable damage only seems to occur in Jamaica) makes the distribution uncertain (CMI Map 386. ed. 1, 1961). Besides Jamaica it occurs in Florida and has been described from Cameroon (27: 564) and India (40: 533); it has also been reported from Ceylon, Cuba, Egypt, Guyana, Indonesia (Java), Venezuela. Some of these records are considered to be doubtful. TRANSMISSION: Not known.

Abstract A description is provided for Diaporthe citri. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: On Citrus aurantifolia, C. aurantium, C. grandis, C. limon, C. parasisi, C. reticulata and C. sinensis. DISEASE: Melanose of Citrus spp. and stem end rot of the fruit. Symptoms occur on the immature leaves, young branches, stalks and fruit. The very small spots enlarge, become water-soaked, sunken, dark with chlorotic halos and develop raised, corky, superficial, necrotic areas up to 1 mm diam. ; this spotting is frequently very abundant and scar-like, necrotic aggregations are formed; on the fruit the spots are sometimes arranged in rings, lines or curves. Leaves are distorted and may fall prematurely. The small, dying branches bear the same raised spots in which both spore stages are found. Diaporthe citri is one of the citrus pathogens which penetrates the fruit at the stem end and causes a rot in storage (7, 713; 23, 386; 50, 679). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread in citrus growing areas (CMI Map 126, ed. 2, 1966). TRANSMISSION: Water-borne through the conidia.

Abstract A description is provided for Sphaceloma fawcettii var. scabiosa. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Rough and sweet lemon, lime, grapefruit, sweet orange, mandarin and satsuma orange, citron (Citrus medica), C. japonica and C. jambhiri. Sour orange somewhat resistant (McCleery, 1930) or immune (51, 2478). DISEASE: Tryon's scab or Australian citrus scab. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Australia (Queensland, New South Wales), S.W. Pacific (New Guinea, New Caledonia (41, 85), Fiji, British Solomon Islands); probably New Zealand (Jenkins, 34, 516), S.E. Asia (Malaysia, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka), Africa (Malagasy Republic and Comores Islands (51, 2478), Malawi, Rhodesia and Zambia); South America (Argentina (33, 292)). (From literature cited and specimens in Herb. IMI: CMI Map 161, ed. 2, 1966.) TRANSMISSION: Presumably by wind and rain splash as in common citrus scab (CMI Descript. 438) infection arising at start of season from lesions on old fruits and twigs (McCleery, 1930).

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome Corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has caused a global pandemic affecting many countries. The disease is affecting all age groups but data so far has shown that infants and children seem to be at a lower risk of severe infection. This case emphasis that neonates too can have life threatening pulmonary disease that mimics a similar disease course to that described in adults with COVID-19 infection. We report a 21-day-old neonate who presented with fever and signicant positive history of COVID 19 infection in family and developed acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The SARSCoV-2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of nasopharyngeal swab was positive and chest computed tomography had classical changes of COVID 19 infection. Good hydration, lung protective strategies, intravenous immunoglobulin and supportive care led to complete recovery in the patient.

Uromyces Appendiculatus

Abstract A description is provided for Uromyces appendiculatus. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: On Dolichos, Phaseolus and Vigna species. DISEASE: Rust on leaves of French, Lima, and Scarlet Runner beans, and other Phaseolus spp., and cowpeas. The reddish-brown, circular sori may be surrounded by a yellow halo in some varieties. Complete defoliation and total loss of crop results in seasons favouring severe infection. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: World-wide wherever beans are grown (CMI Map 290, Ed. 2, 1964). TRANSMISSION: By urediospores disseminated by wind, and through contact with animals including man and his implements. Indirect evidence of the possibility of introduction into Sierra Leone on seed imported from Ghana and S. Africa has been given by Deighton (25: 253). Some 40% of urediospores stored for 2 yr. at -60°C, and 16% stored more than 600 days at -18°C, have survived with virulence unimpaired, and it is thought that the rust is thus able to overwinter on bean trash and trellis poles in the United States (42: 167; 43, 299).

Abstract A description is provided for Leptosphaeria maculans. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: On Brassica spp. ; Brassica oleracea, B. rapa and B. napobrassica and other Cruciferae. DISEASE: Variously known as canker, dry rot and black leg, mainly of Brassica oleracea, B. rapa and B. napobrassica. Several cruciferous genera are attacked. The first symptoms are seen on seedlings as pale lesions on the stem, cotyledons and first true leaves. These become greyish with the pycnidia developing in their centres. On older plants in the field lesions on the leaves and other above-ground parts often have purplish margins. The stem, root and bulb are attacked causing necrotic, girdling cankers and transverse splits; severe infection of stem or root leads to wilt or the plant toppling over. Pycnidia develop abundantly on all infected areas. The perfect state has been reported from Australia, Canada, England and the Republic of Ireland (44, 65; 45, 1568; 48, 51). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread but mostly in temperate regions (CMI Map 73 ed. 3, 1969). Records not yet mapped are: Australia (NT), Brazil, Costa Rica, Salvador, USSR (Ukraine). TRANSMISSION: The seed is invaded, dormant mycelium forming beneath the seed coat (11: 489; 19: 58). A recent survey in Denmark (48, 2641) showed seed of B. oleracea var. capitata to be most frequently infected and a longevity of 3 yr 8 months reported. From New Zealand a longevity of 14 months was found (39: 200). Seed treatment for control of conidial infection has led to the recognition that the disease may also be introduced by air-borne ascospores from host debris (42: 62; 49, 1822; 50, 2027). A persistence of 3 yr in soil organic matter can occur (9: 218; 29: 448).

Five scions and ten rootstocks were tested in an eight-year trial at Irymple, near Mildura, Victoria. The scions were two old-line Lisbons, a nucellar Eureka, and two old-line Eurekas. Cumulative yields averaged for the ten rootstocks and expressed as a percentage of the best scion were : Rix Lisbon 100, Doncaster Lisbon 99, Frost Nucellar Eureka 95, Rodwell Eureka 89, and Villa Franca Eureka 73. The rootstocks, with their percentage yields in parentheses, were : Rough lemon (100), Cavanagh sweet orange (90), Symons sweet orange (84), Marsh grapefruit (73, Cox sweet orange (74), Cleopatra mandarin (72). Seville sour orange (721, Sampson tangelo (69), Emperor mandarin (69), and Carrizo citrange (30). The poor performance of Carrizo citrange is discussed in terms of virus infection and incompatibility. The incidence and importance of scion overgrowth is also reported and discussed.

Two experiments with Navel orange scions (CV. Washington and Leng) on a number of rootstocks were done on three sandy Mallee soils in the Mildura irrigation district. Rootstocks included sweet orange (eight cultivars), rough lemon, mandarin (two cultivars), trifoliate orange, and citrange (two cultivars). In experiment 1 (1949 to 1963) eight sweet orange rootstocks gave similar results in terms of yield and tree size. Leng produced more but smaller fruit than Washington, but total weights were similar. In experiment 2 (1959 to 1969 and continuing) Leng trees were larger, produced more fruit, and on one soil a greater weight of fruit per tree than Washington. Sweet orange rootstocks were usually superior to other rootstocks on each soil type, although rough lemon gave results that were similar and, for a few combinations, superior. Trees on mandarin rootstocks were low producers and small in the early part of the experiment, but by the end of the period were yielding as much fruit as those on sweet orange. Trifoliate rootstocks were unsatisfactory, and citrange intermediate between sweet orange and trifoliate. No fruit quality differences ascribable to rootstock were detected.

Troyer Citrange

Juice quality, yield performance, and cropping efficiency of 6 midseason orange varieties (Hamlin, Parramatta, Pineapple, Joppa, White Siletta, and Mediterranean Sweet), together with Seedless Valencia on 4 rootstocks [Troyer citrange, Poncirus trifoliata, rough lemon, and either Benton citrange (coastal) or sweet orange (inland)], were studied for their suitability for both processed and fresh orange juice production. Promising midseason varieties for processed orange juice were Parramatta and Hamlin on Troyer citrange, and Parramatta on P. trifoliata, when grown in coastal districts. Debittered juice of Joppa on Troyer citrange could also be used for processing by early September on the coast. Preferred inland varieties for production of processed orange juice were Mediterranean Sweet and Harnlin on Troyer citrange. Midseason oranges grown inland had higher citric acid levels than the same variety grown on the coast. This resulted in inland fruit having lower ratios of total soluble solids (TSS) to acid, and later maturities, than fruit grown on the coast. Acceptable fresh orange juice was produced from fruit of Parramatta, Hamlin, White Siletta, and Mediterranean Sweet varieties grown on Troyer citrange rootstock in coastal districts; inland, fruit of Mediterranean Sweet, Joppa, Parramatta, and White Siletta varieties on Troyer citrange rootstock produced good quality, fresh orange juice. Hamlin can also be marketed as fresh fruit. In coastal production areas, harvesting can commence from mid July for Hamlin, from mid to late August for Parramata, and from early September for White Siletta and Mediterranean Sweet. Harvest in inland districts for processed juice should commence in mid July for Hamlin and in early September for Mediterranean Sweet, whilst harvest for fresh juice and/or fruit should proceed in early September for Mediterranean Sweet, and in late September for Parramatta, White Siletta, and Joppa. Highest fruit yields and large trees were produced by Parramatta and Joppa on Troyer citrange and rough lemon rootstocks. Most quality characteristics were better for fruit produced on Troyer citrange than on rough lemon. Both Benton citrange and sweet orange performed poorly and are not recommended as rootstocks for midseason oranges. All varieties on Troyer citrange had better yield and TSS/ha than those on P. trifoliata rootstock, which produced smaller but highly cropping efficient trees.
