Symptoms include needles developing yellow spots, horizontal brown bands around the needles, swelling of needles, and off-white fruiting bodies formed on infected needles. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Because Cyclaneusma is an ascomycete it produces two spore types, an asexual ( conidiomata ) and sexual ( ascomycota ) spore.
The symptoms give the disease its name. The first signs of infection that can be seen are yellow and brown spots that develop on the living needles, [7] [8] which soon turn red. This infection starts on the base of the crown on older needles, which then turn a brownish red at the tip, while the rest of the needle remains green. [9]
Young twigs never hang downwards and are yellow-brown in color. [6] The narrow, needle-like, evergreen leaves are quite sharply pointed and may be dull green, blue, or pale white.

The tree loses its ability to produce resin and to defend itself. [3] Trade and pulp production problems associated with blue stain fungi. Developing spores of the blue stain fungi are a concern in packaging materials used for shipping from Canada to Australia due to the potential risk of introducing invasive species of fungi. [4]
[2] [6] It is detected by an appearance of yellow or brown spots on needles during or after wet weather. If moist conditions continue, colorless conidia develop on the lower surface of needles in clusters, and spores begin to grow, appearing as white spots. Browned needles consumed by Rhabdocline laricis eventually wither and drop off the larch ...
Small water-soaked lesions, maturing into sunken and brown spots with or without a yellow halo. May show concentric rings with purple margins. Necrotic tissue may fall out to appear shot-holed. Leaf spot on many plants and crops. Septoria: Small brown spots, that turns light tan to white in the centre. Leaf spot on many crops Bipolaris
Rhytisma acerinum is a plant pathogen that commonly affects sycamores and maples in late summer and autumn, causing tar spot. Tar spot does not usually have an adverse effect on the trees' long-term health. [1] R. acerinum is an Ascomycete fungus that locally infects the leaves of trees and is a biotrophic parasite. [2]
