Systematic stepwise screening of new microbial antagonists for biological control of European canker
Neonectria ditissima is the causal agent of European canker. This pathogen causes cankers on apple branches and the main stem, which may lead to the loss of the whole tree. Chemical control is the essential component in disease management and no suitable biocontrol products are commercially available.

Identification of Regional Climatic Conditions Favorable for Development of European Canker of Apple [PDF]
Months of the year with high risk of European canker (Neonectria galligena) development in areas of the United States, Chile, England, and Northern Ireland were determined from published data. Moving-window analysis of long-term climatic data was used to classify disease risk in these areas in relation to rainfall and temperature conditions using the ...

Protection of budding wounds in apple nursery trees from European canker
The fungus Neonectria ditissima can cause European canker in apple nursery trees In this study ten treatments of EMLA 9 rootstocks budded with Royal Gala were examined 5 Treatments included combinations of five budding tapes two budding methods and three fungicidal treatments Fifteen months after inoculation all Tbudded trees had died Chipbudded trees ...

Monitoring methods and spatial patterns of European canker disease in commercial orchards
European canker (Neonectria ditissima) kills trees and decreases production in apple orchards To determine a level of disease control or the extent of its spread in commercial orchards efficient monitoring methods are required In this study we investigated two monitoring methods sampling a single row and systematic sampling of an orchard block The ...

Comparing methods to determine European canker resistance in apple tree accessions
Pruning cuts made in summer and pruning cuts leaf scars and score wounds made in autumn were inoculated to compare their suitability to discriminate for European canker resistance among apple accessions When pruning cuts were inoculated in summer the mean lesion size varied between accessions with Royal Gala displaying significantly larger lesions than

The effect of nitrogen source on in vitro growth of Neonectria ditissima (European canker)
Nitrogen fertilisers are widely used in apple orchards. However, the effects of various nitrogen sources on growth and sporulation of the fungus Neonectria ditissima, which causes European canker, are not fully understood. The effects of various nitrogen sources commonly used in apple orchards (potassium nitrate, ammonium chloride, ammonium nitrate ...

European canker is one of the most devastating fungal diseases of apple in most temperate regions. The causal agent, Neonectria ditissima , infects trees through wounds in the bark forming cankers that girdle the stem and eventually cause tree death ...

Neonectria ditissima infects apple trees through wounds, causing European canker. In the UK, the most important entry site for N. ditissima is leaf scar. Specific apple endophytes may contribute to cultivar resistance/tolerance to the pathogen.

Background European canker, caused by Neonectria ditissima, is a disease of worldwide importance in apple production, yet knowledge about it is limited, highly regional and sometimes contradictory.
