1 Floral Crops: Diseases 6-1 Floral Crops: Diseases Chuan Hong, Plant Pathologist, Hampton Roads AREC The conditions under which many floral and foliage crops are produced, i.e., high humidity, low light intensity, and frequent watering, are favorable for the development of fungal and bacterial diseases. If insects are uncontrolled in the greenhouse, viruses can become a major problem. Nematodes may be introduced on infected plant material or unsterilized soil. There are three principles in the management of floral crop health. The first principle is to prevent pathogens from entering production systems. Applications of this principle include use of disease-free propagating materials, noncontaminated or decontaminated containers, soil-less media and irrigation water, etc. The second principle is to create environments that are working against pathogens. Some common practices of this principle are to (i) use of disease-resistant or tolerant plant species and varieties, (ii) remove diseased plants and planting materials from production beds once they are noticed, to reduce disease potential and dissemination risk, (iii) irrigate crops in early morning instead of evening to shorten the wet period on foliage that is essential for many pathogen germination, infection, and growth, and (iv) use of biopesticides such as Actino-Iron. The third principle is to control the disease when it does arise. The keys to successfully implementing this principle include early detection of a disease, correct diagnosis of its cause and selection of the right chemicals. Fungicides should be only used for fungal diseases, so should bactericides for bacterial diseases, oomyceticides for downy mildew, Phytophthora and Pythium diseases. The rest of this section provides general recommendations for control of major floral crop diseases. It is important that growers carefully consult and strictly follow the label when applying a fungicide, bactericide, oomyceticide or nematicide for disease control.
