Abstract
A survey for the possible occurrence of red‐core disease (Phytophthora fragariae var. fragariae) was carried out on 250 strawberry production sites in Finland. The fields were inspected visually. A total of 1080 samples of strawberry roots were taken in spring and autumn 1995 and examined visually, microscopically and by isolation in the laboratory. Root‐tip bait‐plant tests were performed in the glasshouse to look for the latent presence of the fungus. No red‐core disease was detected in any of the inspected fields or in the examined samples.
