Pathogenicity

Brien, Chamberlain et al. (1955) included this fungus under Botrytis cinerea. In some seasons it is troublesome on broad bean crops subjected to severe climate conditions in early spring, causing "chocolate spot" on leaves, stems, and pods. It is recorded from Auckland, Hastings, and Nelson, where in wet seasons it can cause crop losses. Wallace (1962) suggested sprays with the organic fungicides P.C.N.B. and captan for its control.
