Die-back of blackberries: Study of causes and prevention of disease affecting Boysen and Young trailing blackberries
by Stephen Wilhelm, C. Emlen Scott, Richard A. Break
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
A die-back disease affecting primarily the Boysen and Young trailing blackberries was prevalent in nearly all berry-growing regions of California during the winters of 1947—18 and 1948—19. It did not occur, or was much reduced in severity during the 1949-50 and 1950-51 winters.

Pruning-time studies on grapes: Southern California investigations on relationship between vine pruning time and the so-called grape bud mite problem
by Martin M. Barnes, Chester L. Hemstreet, Charles L. Turzan
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Vineyard pruning-time studies in southern California—for the season of 1950 and confirmed in 1951—have shown a relationship between pruning time in head-pruned vineyards and the incidence of so-called bud mite injury. This term was adopted in California following general acceptance of a diagnosis in which the grape bud mite, a physiological strain of Eriophyes vitis (Pgst.), was designated as the causal agent of certain growth abnormalities and crop losses in vineyards.

Citrus rootstock problems: Recommendations change as developments within citrus industry reflect influence of rootstock on tree and fruit
by W. P. Bitters, L. D. Batchelor

Citrus-root nematode: Effects on young lemon and orange trees studied in inoculation tests under controlled conditions
by R. C. Baines, O. F. Clarke
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
The citrus-root nematode—Tylenchulus semipenetrans—appears to affect the growth of young citrus trees in four ways: it may injure the bark of the roots; remove plant nutrients during feeding; impair the normal growth and functioning of the roots; and possibly inject a toxic material into the tree. Recently, investigations were undertaken to determine the effects of the nematode on young lemon and orange trees growing under controlled conditions, and to establish the causal relationship of the nematode to the frequent failure of young citrus trees to grow satisfactorily when planted on old citrus soils.
