| Authors: | M HALAMBEK |
| Abstract: | The present state of chestnut blight caused by the fungus Cryphonectria parasitica in Yugoslavia is presented. Canker disease is present all over the country wherever chestnut stands occur. Field observations have shown the presence of abnormal disease symptoms at some localities. Isolates of C. parasitica from these sites varied widely in cultural characteristics and pathogenic properties, some showing the characteristics of hypovirulent strains. |
