Control methods include physically removing damaged pads and allowing the Sun to heal wounds. ) It appears banded in reddish brown stiff hairs that are long and irritate skin on contact. Digitaria didactyla var. is a soil borne fungus that infects the stem root junction and extends into the leaves. It is essential in these cases to sterilise the chain and chain bar between trimming the fronds on each tree. Dendranthema and Thymus species are susceptible to the Stem Rot (Fusarium species) and (Pellicularia filamentosa) which rots the base of the stem. species). It is not a true scale insect and is simular to mealy bugs. The fungus prefers warm humid climates and is commonly seen in coastal regions and may continue living in soil for many years. Acer species are also infected by Tar Spot (Rhytisma acerinum) which forms round black spots that have yellow margins. This disease forms deeply sunken reddish brown areas that become corky and produce a greenish fungal growth. Digitaria didactyla Willd. The spores overwinter on infected plants and fallen leaves and are dispersed by wind infecting new growth during spring. During hot weather the plant wilts easily as it is unable to keep up with the transpiration rate and under extreme conditions the plant dies. which infects the vascular bundles turning brown, particularly on one side of the stem causing the plant to become stunted, eventually dieing. Banana Leaf Spot (Mycosphaerella musicola) is found on many species of banana causing pale yellow streaks on the young leaves to turn brown with dark spots. Healthy plants are less susceptible to attack, so maintain vigour of the plant and avoid using high-nitrogen fertiliser that produces excessive soft young growth. In some cases both female and male spikelets are born on the same plant. This fungus appears as brown circular or oblong spots that congregate along the margins of the pinnae causing the fronds to turn brown and die. Infested lawns such as. ) Cycads, palms and some species of Callistemon are attacked by the Flat Brown Scale. Leaf Spot on Brush Box (Elsinoe species). Acer, Betula, Quercus and Populus species are susceptible to the Forest Tent Caterpillar. has a relatively narrow host range. The base may also have a meristematic region at the base allowing the leaf to continue to grow after cutting or grazing. The grass is very tolerant of grazing and mowing. The fruiting bodies are black spots that appear on the damaged tissue releasing spores. Wilting may also occur in high temperatures when demand for moisture is, creating less air (co2) and drainage in the soil and coupled with. Young plants may be killed. [excluded] – crabgrass Subordinate Taxa. Generally scales are soft bodied insects that have a hard (armoured) or soft covering to hide under. Quercus species are infected by several types of leaf spot including (Cylindrosporium microspilum) and (Marssonina martini). ), Rodos otu (Chloris gayana Kunth), köpekdişi ayrığı (Cynodon dactylon (L.)

A wide range of vegetables, annuals, perennials and shrubs are affected. which attacks all parts of the plant including the seed capsule forming yellowish spots that turn brown and in leaves fall out. However, it responds almost instantly to good rainfall, particularly on light soils. adult is a moth that produces caterpillars that construct a small elongated shelter from pieces of the host's leaves and enlarges to 80mm long, as the lava grows. female produces a smooth, roughly oval-shaped gall on the twigs and the smaller horn-shaped galls of the males appear on the leaves. They are also hosts for many other scale species such as red, cottony cushion and tea scale. Propagation structures that are either a timber frame with glass or polyethylene cover or a glasshouse. It has true legs and the end of the abdomen is slightly swollen with a darker internal colour.

Calluna and Vaccinium species are attacked by the Oyster Shell Scale (Lepidosaphes ulmi). The three major turfgrass varieties under production in south east Queensland are). It forms light brown rounded spots that have a purplish border. This blight produces ash-grey spots with purple brown margins and the fruiting bodies appear as black pimple like spots. Cut off and destroy infected areas and promote growth with fertilising and regular watering. by forming brown spotting and wilting that appears at the base of the plant then extends towards the top. It is more prevalent during rainy periods and infected leaves fall prematurely. This is the same fungus that causes Damping-off. Ugly bags hang or are wrapped around the plant sometimes in large numbers. Wilis) and Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon) on oxyfluorfen (Goal 2E) application Toleransi tanaman kedelai var. decalvata Digitaria camusiana Henrard Digitaria caespitosa B.Boivin ex A.Camus. It may form cankers on the base of the trunk or in the dead branches above with the amber coloured fruiting bodies pushing there way through the bark. Minimise irrigation of infected areas to reduce spread of infection as the spores are distributed in water. forms water soaked dark brown streaks that affect all parts of the plant causing wilting then dieing. Collect and depose of fallen leaves otherwise control is not normally required. and other conifer species are attacked by the. Close-up of digitate inflorescence of blue couch showing purple stigmas and orange anthers. .This recently introduced fungal disease in Australia (1993) affect plants by blackening the root systems and turning leaves yellow or purple. It usually persists in dry conditions, but it may drop its leaves. is found on many species of banana causing pale yellow streaks on the young leaves to turn brown with dark spots. Examples are Begonia, Boronia, Camellia, Cyclamen, Fuchsia, Gerbera, Grevillea, Impatiens, Pansy, Petunia, Rosa species and Snapdragon. They have piercing and sucking mouth parts that are attached to the host, feed off sap and soft scales commonly producing sweet honeydew, which in turn attracts sooty mould and ants. The adult moth is greyish with small markings on the wings. Digitaria. and is caused by several species including (.
