Notes

Pathogenicity

Significance: Associated with dieback of tips of leaves, which is more severe in the lower part of the crown. Although it has been recorded as the cause of shoot dieback of Thuja occidentalis in Europe (Schneider & Arx 1966), and tip blight and canker of Chamaecyparis nootkatensis in Canada (Funk 1981), it is not regarded as a major pathogen.; Host(s): Chamaecyparis lawsoniana, Thuja plicata.
