Notes

Cruickshank (1957a) and Brien, Chamberlain, et al. (1955) recorded A. pinodella as one of the fungi responsible for collar rot in peas in New Zealand; they also associated this fungus with a purplish angular leaf spot. Cruickshank (1957a) demonstrated that it was seed-borne in seed crops harvested in Canterbury and Marlborough. It can be of considerable economic importance.
