Abstract:
... The pitch canker pathogen, Fusarium circinatum , has major impacts on production in pine nurseries and plantations in South Africa. Thus far, efforts to reduce local spread have focused on rouging of infected pines and sanitation to eliminate local sources of inoculum. Although the host range of F. circinatum was thought to be limited to pines and Douglas-fir, recent studies in California indicate ...

Abstract:
... Pistachio trees are hosts to a relatively extensive arthropod fauna. Arthropod pests are the main problem for pistachio-growers and, for this reason, insects and mite infestations have received particular attention from pistachio-growers. The injurious species in the pistachio plantations of the Middle-East and Mediterranean region are the same, but are different from those found in pistachio orch ...
