Venturia cerasi Aderh. 1900

Description

Type: Foliicolous Fungi; Description: Ascomata stromatic, perithecial, aggregated in groups, immersed at first, erumpent later, globose, black, 0.1–0.2 mm in diameter, ostiole prominent, often surrounded by a few brown setae; on the lower surfaces of fallen leaves. Asci cylindrical, 60–70 × 10–12 μm. Ascospores elliptical, 1-septate, 12–15 × 6 μm, smooth, olivaceous green. Conidia oblong fusiform, 0-septate, 20–25 × 4–5 μm, smooth, pale green.

Distribution

Distribution: Mid Canterbury, Central Otago.; 1st Record: Brien and Dingley (1955: as Fusicladium (Cladosporium) carpophilum).

Notes

Pathogenicity

Significance: On living leaves and fruit, only the Fusicladium state is found. Infection of fruit causes spotting and makes the fruit unsaleable. The disease is un-common and of little significance (Atkinson 1971).; Host(s): Prunus avium.
