Managing Botrytis Blight on Geraniums
Subject:
Managing Botrytis Blight on Geraniums
Abstract:
Stem, leaf, and flower blights caused by the fungus Botlytis cinerea can limit all phases of ornamental production. Botlytis is known for its ability to produce large masses of gray conidia (spores) on infected or dead tissue. The conidia may be picked up and carried on air currents and transporied to healthy plants where blight can become established.
