arthropod subcommunities developing on leaf, fruit and...
Conditions were established for inducing pear blossom blast
caused by Pseudomonas syringae (Ps) on both attached and detached
shoots. The incidence of disease was proportional to the log of Ps
population under optimal temperature, moisture and bloom developmental
stage. Highest incidence of infection followed occurrence of a major
exotherm in...
