Title: The Susceptibility of Disease-Resistant Apple Cultivars to Fruit Rot Infection Incited by Three Summer Diseases
Authors: J.W. Travis and J.L. Rytter
Citation
Abstract:
Conventional production practices
using standard commercial apple cultivars include a regular fungicide spray
program throughout the growing season to control early season diseases as
well as summer diseases.
In contrast,
practices involving disease resistant
apple cultivars (DRCs) limit the use
or these fungicidal sprays.
Fungicides
are either not applied or the number
of applications are reduced.
As a result,
the potential for fruit rot infection
caused by summer diseases exists.
This
research project was initiated to determine the susceptibility of DRCs to
three summer diseases.
