Bacterial Spot

Bacterial spot is a devastating disease that affects peach, nectarine, almonds and plums and left untreated, the bacterial spot is able to virtually eradicate orchards and as such, farmers suffer from low crop yields. Bacterial spot attacks both the fruit and leaves of the trees and they appear as brown blotches on the surface of the fruit and the final stage of the disease is that the flesh beneath the spots becomes soft. The results of bacterial spot are batches of inedible fruit, which cannot be sold and which virtually destroys the entire crop. The disease then continues in cycles, leaving the scars on the woody tissue of the plant and in fall, when the leaves fall from the tree, the twigs which are left are attacked by the bacterial spot and during favorable seasons the bacteria begins to ooze from the natural openings found on the trees and in winter the bacteria turns to wetness. Studies into bacterial spot have uncovered that the infections of bacterial spot occur usually when the leaves are moist, which is a favorable condition for the bacteria to grow.
