| Abstract:
Five yellow canopy disorders of almond [Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D. Webb], with different etiologies, have been studied over the past decade. Two of these yellow canopy syndromes were associated with peach yellow leafroll phytoplasma (PYLR-phytoplasma) and differences in disease symptoms were dependent upon the type of rootstock. Three other disorders were abiotic in nature; two were genetic and one was site-specific. | |
