Article Synopsis
- Diplodia shoot blight and canker disease (DSB) is caused by the fungal pathogen Diplodia sapinea and primarily affects 2-3 needled pines, such as ponderosa pine, resulting in various symptoms including necrotic needles, cankers, and dieback.
- The pathogen can exist without visible symptoms in trees, making it difficult to detect, and outbreaks are more common in stressed environments like nurseries and seed orchards.
- Although D. sapinea has not been previously reported in Colorado, studies confirmed its presence and pathogenicity after observing symptoms in ponderosa pines in Wyoming in 2018 and discovering symptomatic trees in Colorado in 2021.
