Cercospora handelii Bubák 1909

Pathogenicity

MacArthur (1959) recorded Cercospora handelii as a leaf spot on Rhododendron sp. cult. from New Plymouth, Taranaki, and Palmerston North, Wellington. There are also records from Timaru, Canterbury. This disease caused by this fungus can be serious in some varieties in nursery rows. MacArthur (1959) recommended the application of bordeaux sprays for its control.
