The bands start yellow but turn brown/red and can become purple with spots on the upper or lower surface of the needle. [3] Signs of Rhabdocline pseudotsugae include apothecia that mature below epidermis where swelling is visible. These fruiting bodies are present on the underside of needles.
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]
It produces small, spherical black fruiting bodies (pseudothecia) which obstruct the needle’s stomatal openings. The pseudothecia block gas exchange into and out of the needle, which prevents photosynthesis in heavily infected needles. [10] This causes yellowing of the needles, with eventual necrosis and premature needle-drop. In some heavily ...
Bidens alba is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae, commonly known as shepherd's needles, beggarticks, Spanish needles, or butterfly needles. [1] Bidens means two- toothed, describing the two projections found at the top of the seeds, and alba refers to the white ray florets. [ 2 ]
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]
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
Beneath the black-striped elytra is a black abdomen. [2] Close-up of adult Acalymma vittatum morphology. Adult striped cucumber beetles can often be confused with western corn rootworm adults. Western corn rootworm adults also have a yellow-colored elytra with three black stripes, a yellow prothorax, and a brown or black head.
