Hoke Agricultural Extension News
by Willie Featherstone, Jr., Agricultural Extension Agent
BLUE MOLD -? TO INFORM...
BUT NOT ALARM
Blue mold was observed in
certain areas near Uvalde, Texas
during the last week in April. The
disease was developing on plants of
Nicotians repanda which is a
species related to tobacco and
which grows as a weed in certain
parts of southwestern United
States.
Diagnosis was confirmed on
April 29. Typical foliage lesions
were present and the fungus was
sporulating. The occurrence of the
disease followed a 2-week period of
rainy and cool weather. This is
typical for the conditions that one
normally expects to favor blue
mold.
It is worthy to note this report
but not to be alarmed by it. As
always, we should be watchful for
any possible outbreak of this
disease in the tobacco section of the
southeast.
However, its presence in the
southwest does not necessarily fore
tell an outbreak in our state. This
information is being passed along
so that you will be informed and so
that everyone might be reminded to
be watchful for this disease.
We shall try to keep you. up-to
date regarding this and other
disease problems as conditions
warrant.
