  • Undiluted neoasozin solution (6.5% a.i.), an arsenic fungicide, was sprayed on 169 cankers of apple trees from early March to September in 1987 twice at intervals of one week without scraping off the affected barks. Among the treated cankers, 79.9% ceased to grow within 1∼7 weeks, 13.0% showed partial development, and 7.1% grew continuously to girdle the branches. The partially developed cankers, however, could also be cured by an additional spray after slightly piercing at the edge of cankers to facilitate the penetration of the chemical. When the canker growth was blocked, cankers were encircled by cracks developed at the marginal area of the cankers. If the cracks developed once, very few cankers grew beyond them. The above results suggest that the crack development may be the consequence of the host defense activity to wall off the pathogen. In addition to the curative efficacy, the neoasozin solution inhibited sporulation of the pathogenic fungus almost completely. However, the pathogen survived for more than three months in some cankers that externally appeared to be cured, suggesting that an indirect mode of action of the chemical against apple Valsa canker seems to be still more persuasive than the direct fungicidal effect. In the final examination conducted in the mid April of the next year, 72.7% of the cankers were completely cured by the two successive neoasozin treatments. Moreover the cure rate became 83.1% if that of partially developed cankers which were also completely cured by an additional treatment was also taken into account. Since 1989 when this method was widely applied in apple orchards in Korea, apple Valsa canker has been effectively controlled to reach a tolerable level.

  • Apple cankers caused by Valsa mali Miyabe, Botryosphaeria ribis Cross, Phomopsis truncicola Miura, are distributed in the main apple growing areas, Choong Chung Puk Do, Choong Chung Nam Do, and Kyung Sang Puk Do. According to the survey in 1970 that Valid mali is the dominant causal organism among the three in the most severely damaged area. Valsa mali and Botryosphaeria ribis were found in ail 3 provinces, however, Phomopsis truncicola was not found in Choong Chung Nam Do. Especially, Botryosphaeria ribis was most abundant in Chunwon of Choong Chung Nam Do. Effects of chemical control of apple canker caused by Valsa mali were tested both on potato dextrose agar with inhibition zones produced by the fungicides and relative growth of assay fungus of peridermis was treated with tile fungicides. Ifost effective was mercuric and followed by Lime sulfur, Hydroquinone sulfate, in general.

  • This study was carried out to examine the effects of soil sulfur mixture on the control apple valsa canker in apple orchard for two years. In organic apple orchard, The recovery percentages of apple valsa canker were compared among control (no treatment), lime sulfur, and soil sulfur in organic orchards. In conventional apple orchards, those of recovery percentages were compared among control, neoasozin, lime sulfur, and soil sulfur. Compared with control, soil sulfur treatments significantly improved the recovery percentages of apple valsa canker infected trees in organic orchard. However, there were no differences between lime sulfur and soil sulfur treatment in organic apple orchard, except BongHyun orchard experiment in 2013. Compared with control fruit qualities, fruit skin red color and fruit firmness were improved in lime sulfur and soil sulfur treatment, respectively. In conventional orchard, apple trees treated with lime sulfur, soil sulfur or neoasozin improved recovery percentages, compared with those of control trees. Soil sulfur treatments recovered 87.5~97.5% of infected 'Fuji'/MM106 apple trees in organic and conventional apple orchards. The trees applied with neoasozin showed significant lower shoot growth than those of soil sulfur treatment in conventional orchard. Soli sulfur treatment improved fruit red color, but did not affected fruit weight, fruit firmness, soluble solids concentrations, and titratable acidity.

  • Three antagonistic bacterial strains against Valsa ceratosperma, one of the apple tree pathogens, were isolated from the nature and investigated. Out of the about 3,000 species of microorganisms which was isolated from the nature, the 3 strains designated as CH219, CH220 and CH245 were selected through the test of their antagonistic activity. The antagonists showed over 50% of antifungal activity against the growth of Valsa ceratosperma on PDA plates and, by the treatment of the culture broth and the heat-treated culture filtrate of it, showed over 95% of antifungal activity. When we tested on the medium which contained their culture filtrate or heat-treated culture filtrate, the antagonists strongly inhibited Valsa ceratosperma. In bioassay on the apple trees, the antagonists also showed their antifungal activity.

  • In the survey from 1992 to 2000, twenty-eight parasitic diseases were observed in major apple producing areas in Korea. The predominant apple diseases were white rot(Botryosphaeria dothidea), Marssonina blotch(Marssonina mali), Valsa canker(Valsa ceratosperma), Alternaria leaf spot(Alternaria mali), and bitter rot(Collectotrichum gloeosporioides and C. acutatum). Apple scab that reappeared in 1990 after disappearance for 15 years was disappeared again since 1997. A viroid disease(caused by apple scar skin viroid) was newly found in this survey. The five diseases, fire blight(Erwinia amylovora), black rot(Botryosphaeria obtusa), scab(Cladosporium carpophilum), Monochaetia twig blight(Monochaetia sp.), and brown leaf spot(Hendersonia mali), which had once described in 1928 but no further reports on their occurrence, were not found in this survey. However, blossom blight(Monilinia mali), brown rot(Monilinia fructigena), and pink rot(Trichothecium roseum), which did not occur on apple after mid 1970s, were found in this survey.

  • BACKGROUND: The low temperature at flowering period break the balance between vegetative and reproductive growth of apple tree. Summer pruning has been used to control vegetative growth. So, this study was conducted to investigate the effect of summer pruning time on shoot growth and fruit quality of 'Fuji'/M.9 apple trees damaged by the low temperature at flowering period. METHODS AND RESULTS: The following treatments were applied to tree : a) control (no summer pruning), b) pruned 26 June, c) pruned 30 July, d) pruned 28 August, and e) pruned 26 September. The summer pruning significantly increased light penetration and fruit red color by reducing the total shoot growth compared with control. And the summer pruning control the outbreak of apple valsa canker. But the summer pruning at the end of June increased regrowth of shoot and pruning weight compared with the summer pruning at the end of August. The summer pruning at 30 July had the highest fruit weight, but return bloom was the highest in the summer pruning at 28 August. CONCLUSION(S): These results indicated the optimum summer pruning time of 'Fuji'/M.9 apple trees damaged by the low temperature at flowering period were the end of August.

  • The occurence of apple canker in the three main apple growing areas including Yesan, Chungju and Taegu was investigated during the four years from 1967 to 1970. According to the survey, about 30 percent of apple plants was infected with canker organisms and more the disease occurred in older plants in comparison with younger ones. Jonathan was said to be highly susceptible among five varieties observed. Main trunks or main branches had more canker lesions than those of twigs or of side branches. The survey showed that application of higher nitrogenous fertilizer without boric acid predisposed to the disease together with sandy soil.
