Bacterial canker, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae is
recognized as one of the greatest limiting factors in cherry production
in Oregon. Disease incidence may be decreased when susceptible
cultivars are high-grafted onto tolerant/resistant rootstocks. This
research was begun to develop a rapid screening method which could be
used to...
The bacterium Pseudomonas syringae affects different crops worldwide. In the
Willamette Valley of Oregon, P. syringae causes bacterial canker in sweet cherry,
severely limiting its production. High grafting of susceptible sweet cherry cultivars to
resistant rootstocks is practiced in the Willamette Valley to reduce incidence of this
disease. The research...
The seasonal biology of the obliquebanded leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris), was studied to improve its management in Mid-Columbia area sweet cherry orchards. Overwintering OBLR larvae began to emerge from hibernacula at bud stage 2 (side green). Most overwintering larvae emerged from hibernacula within three weeks of first bud swell and...
Pesticides—including insecticides, acaricides, fungicides, and bactericides are essential for growing healthy crops with reliable yields and quality. In many instances, pesticides have become less effective as target organisms have developed resistance. The first record of resistance dates to 1897, when orchardists began having problems controlling San Jose scale (Quadraspidiotus perniciosus...
