Diseases of Blueberry Fruit at Harvest in North Carolina

Journal of Small Fruit & Viticulture, 1996
ABSTRACT Blueberries were harvested from 11 cultivars and four breeding selections from four locations in 1989 and 1990. Annual disease losses at harvest averaged 9.6% and were primarily due to five diseases: Mummy berry (Monilinia vaccinii-corymbosi)5.6%, phomopsis soft rot (Phomopsis vaccinii)2.9%, phyllosticta rot (Phyllosticta vaccinii)0.4%, ripe ...

Epidemiological studies on the stunt disease of highbush blueberry

Annals of Applied Biology, 1993
SUMMARYPopulation levels of Scaphytopius spp., possible sharpnosed leafhopper vectors of blueberry stunt disease (BBSD), were monitored during 1989,1990 and 1991, using yellow sticky traps and a D‐Vac power aspirator. Scaphytopius magdalensis (Prov.), S. frontalis (Van D.) and 5. acutus (Say) had two population peaks, one after the petal fall stage and

Occurrence and Prevalence of Foliar Diseases on Blueberry in Georgia

Plant Health Progress, 2008
Qualitative and quantitative information about the occurrence and prevalence of fungal species causing foliar diseases on blueberry in the southeastern United States is limited. To close this knowledge gap, a field survey was conducted in 2002 and 2003 involving a total of 177 samples (cultivar-site-year combinations) from plantings of rabbiteye and ...
