Notes

After expressing considerable doubt about the occurrence of European canker in New Zealand, Cunningham (1925b) reported it from the Whangarei district. It has become extremely common in the Auckland apple-growing areas. Brook, P. J., and Bailey (1965) recommend for its control autumn and winter sprays with either phenyl mercuric chloride or Bordeaux mixture. It is of considerable economic importance in the Auckland area and has limited the planting of some susceptible varieties.
