Abstract

This is the first report of this fungus causing cankers and twig dieback on crabapple trees. Our findings indicate that canker symptoms on crabapple trees caused by P. washingtonensis are similar to those caused by S. pyriputrescens and that infected crabapple trees may serve as a source of P. washington ensis inoculum for infection of apple. Accepted for publication 23 April 2009. Published 12 June 2009.
