Name: Apricot Pathogens and Pests

Text: The PlantCT(TM) System shall provide warning information about the infection probability regarding to the following pathogens:
  • Cherry leaf scorch (Apiognomonia erythrostoma)
  • Monilinia spp. (Monilinia laxa)
  • Shot hole infection on apricot (Wilsonomyces carpophilus [Stigmina carpophila)])
  • Verticillium (Verticillium dahliae)
  • Rust on apricot (Tranzschelia pruni spinosae)
and pests (Nematodes, Molluscs, Insects, and Acari):
  • Leafroller weevil beetle (Rhynchites bacchus)
  • Peach twig borer moth (Anarsia lineatella)
  • Oriental fruit moth (Grapholita molesta)
  • Cherry bark tortrix (Enarmonia formosana)
