The influence of host phenology on infection and severity of rachis tip dieback caused by flower blight pathogens in macadamia

Abstract Rachis tip dieback (RTD) is an emerging disease affecting macadamia racemes and is associated with the flower blight complex. However, the timing and site of RTD infections and the effects of these infections on flower development remain poorly understood. Trials were co...

Rachis tip dieback: a phenology-driven, multi-pathogen disease of macadamia racemes

Rachis tip dieback (RTD) is an emerging disease of macadamia racemes associated with the flower blight complex. Affected racemes exhibit necrosis progressing from the distal to proximal end of the rachis, causing curvature and greyish black discolouration of florets, ultimately r...
