Abstract

During recent years, bacterial canker, a very serious disease of stone fruit, particularly plums, has become more widespread and caused concern to orchardists. It has now been recorded from many stone fruit districts in this State, especially in trees up to ten years old, but it seems to be most damaging in the Karragullen- Pickering Brook district, where a number of young plum plantings have been almost wiped out.
