Cranberry Fruit Rot
Cranberry fruit rot (CFR) is a disease complex of multiple fungal agents affecting the American cranberry (''Vaccinium macrocarpon''). Cranberry fruit rot can be categorized into field rot (rot occurring while growing and before harvest) and storage rot (occurring any time after harvest).McManus, P. ''Cranberry fruit rot diseases in Wisconsin''. 4 (2001). The importance of field rot and fruit rot depends on how the cranberries will be processed after harvest. If cranberries are immediately processed after harvest, growers focus on preventing field rot while with fresh market cranberries, growers seek to prevent storage rot. There are 10-15 fungal pathogens known to cause cranberry fruit rot diseases, some active in only field rot, storage rot, or both. The majority of these fungal pathogens are ascomycetes, with the rest being deuteromycetes. There is no known bacterial pathogen that plays a role in CFR or any major disease on cranberry, potentially due to the low pH conditions on t ...

American Cranberry
''Vaccinium macrocarpon'' (also called large cranberry, American cranberry and bearberry) is a North American species of cranberry of the subgenus ''Oxycoccus'' and genus ''Vaccinium''. The name cranberry, comes from shape of the flower stamen, which looks like a Crane (bird), crane's beak. Description ''Vaccinium macrocarpon'' is a perennial shrub, often ascending (trailing along the surface of the ground for some distance but then curving upwards). It produces white or pink flowers followed by Taste#Sourness, sour-tasting red or pink Berry (botany), berries across. Distribution ''Vaccinium macrocarpon'' is Native plant, native to central and eastern Canada (Ontario to Newfoundland) and the northeastern and north-central United States (Northeastern United States, Northeast, Great Lakes Region, and Appalachians as far south as North Carolina and Tennessee). It is also Naturalisation (biology), naturalized in parts of Europe and scattered locations in North America along wes ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Chlorothalonil
Chlorothalonil (2,4,5,6-tetrachloroisophthalonitrile) is an organic compound mainly used as a broad spectrum, nonsystemic fungicide, with other uses as a wood protectant, pesticide, acaricide, and to control mold, mildew, bacteria, algae. Chlorothalonil-containing products are sold under the names Bravo, Echo, and Daconil. It was first registered for use in the US in 1966. In 1997, the most recent year for which data are available, it was the third most used fungicide in the US, behind only sulfur and copper, with used in agriculture that year. Including nonagricultural uses, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates, on average, almost were used annually from 1990 to 1996.Reregistration Eligibility Decision for chlorothalonil US EPA, 1999. ...

Fungicide
Fungicides are biocidal chemical compounds or biological organisms used to kill parasitic fungi or their spores. A fungistatic inhibits their growth. Fungi can cause serious damage in agriculture, resulting in critical losses of yield, quality, and profit. Fungicides are used both in agriculture and to fight fungal infections in animals. Chemicals used to control oomycetes, which are not fungi, are also referred to as fungicides, as oomycetes use the same mechanisms as fungi to infect plants. Fungicides can either be contact, translaminar or systemic. Contact fungicides are not taken up into the plant tissue and protect only the plant where the spray is deposited. Translaminar fungicides redistribute the fungicide from the upper, sprayed leaf surface to the lower, unsprayed surface. Systemic fungicides are taken up and redistributed through the xylem vessels. Few fungicides move to all parts of a plant. Some are locally systemic, and some move upwardly. Most fungicides that ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Black Rot
Black rot is a name used for various diseases of cultivated plants caused by fungi or bacteria, producing dark brown discoloration and decay in the leaves of fruit and vegetables: * A disease of the apple, pear and quince caused by a fungus (''Botryosphaeria obtusa'' or ''Physalospora cydoniae'') * A disease of grape vines caused by a fungus (''Guignardia bidwellii''), affecting the aboveground part of the vine, and favored by warm, humid weather; also called grape rot * A disease of cabbage and related plants caused by a bacterium (''Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris''). Occurring around the world, it affects primarily the aboveground parts of plants. Vegetables in the crucifer family are susceptible, including broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, Chinese cabbage, kale, mustard, radish, rutabaga, and turnip. Many weeds may host this pathogen including Shepherd's Purse, wild mustard, and yellow rocket. * A disease of the potato caused by a bacterium (''Erwinia atro ...

Botrytis (fungus)
''Botrytis'' is a genus of anamorphic fungi in the family Sclerotiniaceae. ''Botrytis'' (also known as grey mold) belongs to the group hyphomycetes and has about 30 different species. It is a plant parasite as well as saprophytes on both agricultural and forest trees. It produces stout, dark, branching conidiophores that bear clusters of paler conidia (grey in mass) on denticles from apical ampullae. It is a common outdoor fungus and can be detected in spore trap samples. The fungus is often found growing on indoor plants. Although no mycotoxin has been reported from this fungus, it may cause hay fever, asthma and keratomycosis. The most common species is ''B. cinerea'', which is a plant pathogen causing gray mould on a very broad range of hosts including some common ornamental plants, such as geranium, begonia, rose, lily, dogwood, rhododendron, dahlia, Magnolia, and camellia and fruits and produce. This fungus is mainly of outdoor origin, although it may be from growth on fruits ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Yellow Rot
Yellow is the color between green and orange on the spectrum of light. It is evoked by light with a dominant wavelength of roughly 575585 nm. It is a primary color in subtractive color systems, used in painting or color printing. In the RGB color model, used to create colors on television and computer screens, yellow is a secondary color made by combining red and green at equal intensity. Carotenoids give the characteristic yellow color to autumn leaves, corn, canaries, daffodils, and lemons, as well as egg yolks, buttercups, and bananas. They absorb light energy and protect plants from photo damage in some cases. Sunlight has a slight yellowish hue when the Sun is near the horizon, due to atmospheric scattering of shorter wavelengths (green, blue, and violet). Because it was widely available, yellow ochre pigment was one of the first colors used in art; the Lascaux cave in France has a painting of a yellow horse 17,000 years old. Ochre and orpiment pigments ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
