Factors influencing the development of septoria blight in celery

Martinez Granja, Edgar. January 1992 (has links)
Septoria blight of celery (Apium graveolens) caused by Septoria apiicola is a common disease. This work dealt with the development of a simple forecast model to time fungicide application to manage the blight. Two studies were conducted to examine the effect of relative humidity (65, 88, 92, 96%, and wet) temperature (15, 20, 25, and 28 C) and exposure period (6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hr) on spore production. Spores were produced at all levels of relative humidity and temperature tested. Overall spore production increased with increasing relative humidity. The greatest and the least were produced after a 48 hr wet period at 20 and 28 C, respectively. Two regression models were developed to predict spore production as functions of relative humidity and temperature. In order to validate the infection function model a field experiment was conducted in 1989 to quantify latent period. A mean latent period beginning of 12 days, a mean latent period 50% of 14 days, and a mean latent period ending of 19 days were established. Two regression models were developed to predict latent period beginning and latent period ending as functions of mean maximum and mean minimum temperatures. In order to develop a simple forecast model field experiments were conducted in 1989 and 1990. From these studies two simple forecast models are proposed to initiate fungicide applications: (1) Initial disease occurrence. (2) A cumulative disease severity value (CDSV) of 23. Using the forecasts proposed it is possible to reduce five to seven applications of fungicides during the celery growing season in Quebec.

Collection and evaluation of bacteria for the biological control of late blight of celery : (Septoria apiicola Speg.)

Lovering, Nancy January 1995 (has links)
Late blight, caused by Septoria apiicola Speg., is the most important disease affecting celery in Quebec. Biological control was investigated as an alternative to conventional chemical control of late blight. Two hundred and four bacterial isolates were collected from celery leaves, and muck and mineral soils of celery fields in south-western Quebec. Two experiments were conducted to screen the bacteria for antagonism toward Septoria apiicola: one on agar to test for inhibition of pycnidial formation, and the other on leaf disks to test for inhibition of germination of conidia. From these two experiments, 18 isolates were selected that prevented pycnidial formation in an inhibition zone $ ge$1.0 cm wide and reduced germination to below 30% of the control. These isolates were re-evaluated for inhibition of germination on leaf disks. A bacterial suspension (10$ sp7$ cells/ml) was incubated on leaf disks for 24 hours before a suspension of S. apiicola conidia (150,000 spores/ml) was applied, and the disks were incubated for 25 hours. Four isolates reduced germination to $ le$19% of the control. These isolates were tested on plants in a greenhouse. None of the isolates was able to reduce the number of late blight lesions compared to the control.

Effects of temperature and duration of leaf wetness on infection of celery by Septoria apiicola, and cultivar screening for partial resistance

Mathieu, Danielle January 1991 (has links)
The number of lesions increased with increasing temperatures over the range of wet periods except at 30$ sp circ$C, where their number decreased with increasing wetness duration. Cultivars were evaluated for partial resistance under field and greenhouse conditions. In the field ranking was based on cluster analysis of the standard area under the disease progress curve (SAUDPC) for intervals between sampling dates. In the greenhouse, the cultivars were evaluated on the basis of their response relative to five components of partial resistance: the SAUDPC, mean lesion area (MLA), pycnidial density (PCD), spore density (SPD), and the latency period defined as the time from inoculation to 50% and 75% disease (T$ sb{50}$ and T$ sb{75}$). In the greenhouse, overall ranking was based on cluster and principal component analysis of responses to SAUDPC, MLA, PCD and SPD. T$ sb{50}$ and T$ sb{75}$ were not significant. Three cultivars, Golden Plume, Superdora and Summit, were rated as moderately resistant in both field and greenhouse trials. The others ranged from moderately susceptible to very susceptible.
