Pathogenicity

Septoria spot in raspberries is common throughout New Zealand. In commercial crops in Nelson, Taylor and Robbins (1945), Taylor (1945), and Davey (1945) showed that regular sprays with Bordeaux mixture early in the season at delayed dormancy controlled the disease in both raspberries and boysenberries.
