endobj Cause Over 20 viruses have been found in Pelargonium cultivars including Beet curly top virus (leaf hopper transmitted), Cucumber mosaic virus, (CMV, mechanical and aphid transmitted), Impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV, thrips transmitted), Tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV), Tomato ringspot virus (nematode transmitted), Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV, thrips transmitted), Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV, mechanical transmitted), Tobacco necrosis virus (TNV), Tobacco rattle virus (nematode transmitted), Arabis mosaic virus (nematode transmitted), Pelargonium flower break virus (PFBV, mechanically transmitted), and Pelargonium line pattern virus. Nondiscrimination Statement Phyllosticta spp. Ivy geraniums fail to exhibit wilt due to the nature of their leaves; infected foliage loses its luster and develops symptoms of nutrient deficiency or mite infestation. Cercospora brunkii Geraniums, genus Pelargonium, are one of the most rapidly expanding garden crops in the United States. % <> Keep hose ends off the ground. <> Chrysanthemums are known to carry populations of P . Exclusive use of one chemical can result in the development of populations resistant to the chemical. Do not bring ground-planted geraniums into the production area or propagate from them. Cuttings first develop a brown water-soaked rot at the base. Two types of symptoms may develop: 1) Small spots (less than 1/4 inch) develop on underside of the leaf and become sunken and well defined. "Since geraniums are propagated mainly by taking cuttings from established plants, this is likely the most common method of virus spread.". However, gardeners withpelargonium collectionsare more likely to encounter problems. Discard blackleg-infected cuttings even if well rooted. Tobacco rattle virus, Aphelenchoides coffeae Vascular tissue of affected stems turns brown or black. $.' Viruses are typically much more of a problem when plants are multiplied over many years by vegetative means (cuttings), because infections slowly increase in stock material over the years. Thanatephorus cucumeris [teleomorph], Verticillium albo-atrum Apply a fungicide to protect plants. Contact the UMass Extension Plant Diagnostic Lab at (413) 545-3208. It can also persist on the foliage of nonhost plants, epiphytically on geranium leaves, and on wild Geranium species. Discard unwanted geraniums at season's end.

Bactericides such as copper hydroxide and copper sulfate pentahydrate are only marginally effective in controlling bacterial diseases. Xanthomonas can infect through the root system, although it does not survive in growth media in the absence of undecomposed, infected host debris. Apply a fungicide to protect plants.

Small, water-soaked lesions develop first on leaf undersides and in time become visible on the upper surface as round, tan to brown, slightly sunken, 2-3 mm spots with a defined margin. Virus symptoms in pelargoniums are sometimes masked in warmer temperatures and often developonly in winter and spring. Do not leave large cutting stubs.
