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 ...

Apple rootstocks may become infected by Neonectria ditissima during propagation
Introduction and purpose: The ability of apple rootstocks to become infected by Neonectria ditissima, the cause of European canker, was studied over two years.

Methods for quantifying rain-splash dispersal of Neonectria ditissima conidia in apple canopies
Many microorganisms can be dispersed by rain-splash, whereby spores become suspended in water and are spread via droplets. The resulting dispersal gradient is dependent on several factors including rainfall intensity, the nature of the plant canopy and ...

Homoterpene Biosynthesis in Fungi. [PDF]
The first homoterpene biosynthetic pathway in the fungal kingdom is reported. A methyltransferase–terpene cyclase pair produces a unique heptamethyl bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane homoterpene via presodorifen, demonstrating that homoterpene biosynthesis via the addition of a C1 unit to terpene diphosphate precursors prior to scaffold formation extends beyond the

Characterization of mating type genes in heterothallicNeonectriaspecies with emphasis onN. coccinea, N. ditissima,andN. faginata [PDF]
AbstractNeonectria ditissimaandN. faginataare canker pathogens involved in an insect-fungus disease complex of American beech (Fagus grandifolia) commonly known as beech bark disease (BBD). In Europe, bothN. ditissimaandN. coccineaare involved in BBD on European beech (Fagus sylvatica).

Abstract Over the past century, beech bark disease has dramatically altered the composition and structure of stands containing American beech (Fagus grandifolia). Management of beech bark disease has focused on reducing beech thickets and identifying resistant trees in aftermath forests. Beech leaf disease is a recently detected invasive disease, now

Fungicide Sensitivity in the European Canker Fungus, Neonectria ditissima
Neonectria ditissima is one of the most serious pathogens of apple trees in temperate climatic zones, causing bark canker as well as pre- and post-harvest fruit rots. Control of fruit rots in particular is hampered by uncertainty about the sensitivity to,

Plant–pathogen interactions are often considered in a pairwise manner with minimal consideration of the impacts of the broader endophytic community on disease progression and/or outcomes for disease agents and hosts.

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. This is an obstacle to successful disease management.
