“…e) If pruning is not carried out at the right time, i.e. when the trees run a serious risk of being infected by pathogens: in winter, by P. syringae (ROZSNYAY and KLEMENT, 1973) and in summer by Egtyfa armenicae and C. cincta (CARTER, 1957, ROZSNYAY andKLEMENT, 1973). Pruning must be carried out at the beginning of the vegetative period and subsequently trees should be immediately treated against E. armenidme, either by using the fungicide benomyl (Benlate) at 250-300 ppm (MOLLER and CARTER, 1971) or by biological control employing Fzrsarizm lattvitiwm Nees ex Fr.…”

World apricot production by no means meets the total need of the international market (fresh and processed fruits) and is far below the potential in view of the existing favourable geographic, climatic and agrotechnical conditions. The cause for this insufficient world production of apricots, particularly in certain countries which have favourable conditions for apricot culture and its expansion, should be investigated using scientific and technical concepts concerning the apricot decline syndrome (apoplexy, sudden wilting, withering of apricots). After the mutual assistance of research workers from different disciplines in investigating this complex disease, the economic security of apricot growing can be improved and apricot decline reduced to an acceptable level. Special attention must be paid to selecting appropriate cultivars, rootstocks or interstocks, locations and cultivation techniques.

Bacterial Canker and Dieback Disease of Apricots (Pseudomonas syringae van Hall)

Bacterial canker and dieback (Pseudomonas syringae van Hall) of apricot is a widespread disease in Europe, except for the Mediterranean areas. Cankers usually develop at pruning wounds or other points of injury. Phloem and cambium become susceptible from just after leaf drop until budding. If the phloem necrosis does not girdle the branch or trunk, cankers develop by the middle or the end of summer. In early summer, the bacterium actually dies out in the infected tissue, and the tree remains resistant during the summer. During this period, the pathogen lives epiphytically on the surface of the leaves, without causing any symptoms. The extent of bacterial necrosis of the phloem depends on the severity of winter frost. Without winter frost, bacterial induced tissue necrosis does not occur. Necrosis is found only if P. syringae has enough time to proliferate before the onset of frost. The most effective method of control is to carry out spring rather than winter pruning.
