Dothistroma septosporum identified in Greece on Pinus brutia and Pinus nigra plantations
Plant Disease 97 (9), 1247-1247
Abstract: During 2011, Pinus nigra and P. brutia trees growing in Greece were observed with symptoms of reddish-brown bands on the needles, usually with necrotic tips or entirely necrotic. The severity of the disease was low and tree mortality was not noticed. The fungus mortality was isolated from the diseased needles. The identification was based on morphological characteristics and DNA sequence analysis.
