Refinement of practical fire blight control: Non-antibiotic and SAR

Author: Kenneth B. Johnson, Achala KC

Published: 2020

Summary: Suppression of fire blight (caused by Erwinia amylovora) with non-antibiotic methods was investigated. Integrated organic programs beginning with Blossom Protect (70% bloom), followed by Previsto (fb) and then 4% lime sulfur (pf) provided outstanding control with negligible risk of fruit russeting. SAR materials Actigard, Kudos and Regalia provided partial suppression responses.
