Determination of the Resistance of Tolerant Hybrids of Buxus to the Pathogen Cylindrocladium buxicola and the Effect of Nutrition and Climatic Conditions on Leaf Color

Horticulturae
Boxwood (Buxus sp.) plays a key role in historical gardens due to its evergreen foliage and resilience. However, recent outbreaks of disease caused by fungal pathogens such as Calonectria spp. (C. pseudonaviculata, C. henricotiae) and Pseudonectria spp. (

Investigating weather variables driving boxwood blight epidemics: Insights from field trials with Buxus sempervirens ‘Suffruticosa’ in northern Germany between 2006 and 2020

Plant Pathology, Volume 73, Issue 8, Page 2043-2055, October 2024.
Multiyear field trials show that mean rainfall per rainy day, daily minimum temperatures and daily minimum relative humidity have a significant positive effect on boxwood blight severity. Abstract Boxwood blight is a highly invasive disease, but studies on host–pathogen–environment interactions are rare because the initial research emphasis has been on

The Effects of Sanitizers on Calonectria pseudonaviculata and C. henricotiae Conidia and Microsclerotia Viability1

Journal of Environmental Horticulture
Abstract The boxwood blight pathogens Calonectria pseudonaviculata (Cps), and C. henricotiae (Che), produce microsclerotia (ms) on and in leaf tissue and conidia in sticky masses that can be spread by equipment and tools. We evaluated the effects of sanitizers on conidia, excised ms or all Cps life stages in 4-mm-d leaf disks. Leaf disks and excised ms

Anti-desiccant Protection of Boxwood Crops from Infection by Calonectria pseudonaviculata Under Controlled Environments and in Production Fields

PhytoFrontiers
Chemical protection has been a key component of boxwood blight (Calonectria pseudonaviculata, Cps) management programs, but each application of fungicides only protects the iconic evergreen landscape plant for 2 to 3 weeks at best.
