DOWNY MILDEW ON ROSE
DOWNY MILDEW
Downy mildew is caused by a fungus-like water mould (Pseudoperonospora cubensis) and
is a serious disease that can affect many ornamental crops in Canada. As an obligate parasite
it requires a living host to infect. Once established in a region the disease can spread rapidly.
Symptoms first appear as small yellow spots on the topside of older leaves. The yellow spots
sometimes take on a “greasy” appearance. The center of the lesion will eventually turn tan or
brown and die.
Downy mildew primarily over-winters in the southern United States, Mexico, and in greenhouses
where susceptible crops are grown year-round – yet it can travel incredible distances. The
inoculum builds up on susceptible hosts in the spring. Sporangia are carried by air currents
and storms. Sporangia may survive for several days before being deposited on susceptible
ornamental crops. Once the disease becomes established, sporangia are disseminated from
plant to plant. Primary spread is caused by splashing rains, overhead irrigation and moist air
currents. Secondary spread is caused by insects, tools, equipment, the clothing of workers and
through the handling of infected plants.

PHYTOPHTHORA ROOT AND CROWN ROT
PHYTOPHTHORA ON FRASER FIR IN NURSERY
Phytophthora rot root is one of the most devastating diseases to field- and container-grown
ornamentals – especially to woody ornamentals. When the environmental conditions are
favourable, Phytophthora develops very rapidly. Infection occurs when soils are wet and warm
(20–30°C). The disease is associated with heavy rainfall, excessive irrigation, and/or poorly
drained soil. Frequent, heavy irrigation increases the chance of disease.
Phytophthora root rot decreases the root volume, preventing water and nutrient absorption
by the plant. Plant roots often become brittle and turn brownish in color. Wilting is a common
symptom as the disease progresses to the plant crown. Initial symptoms include a sudden
permanent wilt of infected plants that remain green. The wilt progresses from the base to the
ends, before the plant eventually dies.
Resting Phytophthora fungi (chlamydospores and oospores) can survive in diseased roots,
crowns, and crop debris in which it then spreads into the soil or potting media to infect new
plants. Oospores germinate directly and infect plants or produce sporangia and zoospores.
Zoospores are formed and released when the sporangia become saturated in water. Splashing
and runoff water are common culprits for spreading Phytophthora. Zoospores may swim for
several hours and infect plant tissues. Photo: USDA Forest Service , USDA Forest Service, Bugwood.org
