Abstract A description is provided for Septoria helianthi. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: On Helianthus annuus, Helianthus grosseserratus and Helianthus rigidus. DISEASE: Leaf spot of sunflower. Yellowish spots up to 1.5 cm develop over the whole lamina, gradually turning necrotic and becoming almost black. The numerous pycnidia are mostly on the adaxial surface. The lesions have a polygonal outline, being sharply delimited by the veins. Infection may begin on the cotyledons and young leaves, spreading to later developing leaves. Severe attacks lead to defoliation and loss in yield. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Fairly widespread in E. Europe and the U.S.S.R. in Asia, China, Japan, Australia (Qd.); E. and S. Africa, N. America (CMI Map 468, ed. 1, 1970). TRANSMISSION: Overwintering occurs in host debris. Seed treatment is recommended although seed transmission does not appear to have been demonstrated. Introduction of the fungus into Hungary may have been via seed (43, 2013).

Abstract A description is provided for Cylindrosporium concentricum[Pyrenopeziza brassicae]. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Brassica spp. (cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, brussel sprouts, oil seed rape, swedes). DISEASE: Light leaf spot of Brassicae. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Europe (UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Portugal, Rumania, Latvia); Asia (Japan, Philippines); Australia (South Australia, Tasmania); New Zealand. (CMI Map 193, ed. 2, 1975). TRANSMISSION: By splash-dispersed air-borne conidia. No seed transmission has been demonstrated.

With the purpose to evaluate the intensity of angular leaf spot (ALS) and anthracnose (ANT) on pods, nine genotypes of common bean were planted in three cropping systems: monocrop (MC), monocrop grown on trellises (MCT), and intercrop with maize (ICM). In MC, beans were planted 0.5 m apart. Trelisses were set up with 1.8 m high bamboos and beans were sown 0.65 m apart. In ICM, beans were planted simultaneously with maize and in its rows. This cereal was sown 1.0 m apart with four plants per meter. Each cropping system was an independent trial installed close to each other. Climbing genotypes of beans most susceptible to ALS had less diseased pods in ICM than in both MC and MCT, but the less susceptible genotypes, regardless of their growth type, as well as the susceptible bush and semiclimbing genotypes, were similarly attacked by ALS in the three systems. ANT on pods of the susceptible bean cv. Pérola was less intense in MCT than in MC, and less intense in ICM than in MCT. ANT seed transmission was 11 %, 9.1 %, and 4.4 % when seeds come from MC, MCT, and ICM, respectively.

Abstract Efficacy of azoxystrobin (Heritage 50W™) was assessed over a range of application rates and intervals for the control of powdery mildew (Erysiphe polygoni) and Cercospora leaf spot (Cercospora hydrangea) on bigleaf hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla) ‘Nikko Blue’. Rooted hydrangea cuttings were transplanted in a pine bark/peat mixture. In 1998 and 1999, azoxystrobin at 0.16 g ai/liter and 0.32 g ai/liter, as well as 0.24 g ai/liter myclobutanil (Eagle 40W™) and 0.84 g ai/liter thiophanate methyl (3336 4.5F™), greatly reduced the incidence of powdery mildew compared with the untreated control where 75% of the leaves of were infected by the causal fungus. When applied at 1-, 2-, and 3-week intervals, both rates of azoxystrobin were equally effective in both years in preventing the development of powdery mildew on bigleaf hydrangea. In 1998, all fungicides except for thiophanate methyl protected bigleaf hydrangea from Cercospora leaf spot. In the last two trials, the incidence of powdery mildew increased significantly as the application rate for azoxystrobin decreased from 0.16 to 0.04 g ai/liter and the application interval was lengthened from 1 to 3 weeks. In general, all rates of azoxystrobin applied on a 3-week schedule failed to provide the level of powdery mildew control needed to produce quality bigleaf hydrangea for the florist and landscape market. When applied at 2-week intervals, myclobutanil was equally or more effective in controlling powdery mildew than any rate of azoxystrobin applied on the same schedule. When compared to the untreated controls, significant reductions in the incidence of powdery mildew on bigleaf hydrangea were obtained with weekly applications of paraffinic oil. No symptoms of phytotoxicity were associated with the use of any of the fungicides screened.
