Abstract
SUMMARY Leptosphaeria coniothyrium, the cane blight pathogen, was the fungus most commonly isolated from vascular lesions developing from mechanical harvester wounds on first‐year red raspberry canes. When inoculated to scalpel wounds, it induced similar lesions which were later associated with bud failure and cane death as were infected wounds on machine damaged canes. Cane resistance increased from May until August, inoculations later than July inducing only small lesions and rarely causing bud failure.
