Last Updated: 2024/11/22, Downy mildew of chrysanthemum is one of the main diseases of chrysanthemum, which often occurs in the mountain areas with average temperature of 16.4 ℃-19.0 ℃, annual rainfall of about 1500mm and low temperature and heavy rain in spring. So what are the morphological characteristics and control methods of chrysanthemum downy mildew? Next, let's follow.

Chrysanthemum downy mildew occurs mostly in mountainous areas with average temperature of 16.4℃ ~ 19.0℃, annual rainfall of about 1500mm, low temperature and rainy spring, which is one of the main diseases of chrysanthemum. So what are the morphological characteristics and control methods of chrysanthemum downy mildew? Let's follow forestry experts to understand these questions.

I. What is chrysanthemum downy mildew?

Peronospora diideBary is one of the main diseases of chrysanthemum, belonging to Peronospora of Fungi phylum and Subphylum. Pathogen in low temperature and humid environment easy to disease, in spring disease, so that seedlings on the stems and leaves of white frost mold, growth weakened or seedlings wither death; autumn plant infected, leaf spots for light green, later spots gradually become purple-black, leaf back spots present a white frost mold layer, in high temperature easy to develop into yellow-brown spots, serious, spots convergence, plant death.

II. Morphological characteristics of downy mildew of chrysanthemum

Cyst peduncle is solitary or clustered, extending from stomata, without separation, trunk base is expanded, size is 225.0-412.0μm×7.8-11.8μm, main peduncle is 1/2~1/4 of total length, crown is 3-7 times bifurcated, tip is 2-3 times bifurcated, right angle or acute angle, top branch is 7.8-11.8μm long, thin end, base is slightly thick, top branch is obtuse, slightly expanded, or hypha is white, cyst peduncle is 3-5 times bifurcated, first bifurcate is asymmetric, The size is 286.0-707.0μm×9.0-16.0μm, the trunk length is 192.0-473.0μm, the terminal branches are nearly right angle, the length is 7.8-15.7μm, straight or curved, and the end is pointed. Sporangia pale brown, elliptical, 24.5-31.2μm×14.7-24.5μm in size; or sporangia without papilla, 23.0-33.0μ m × 17.0 -27.0μm in size.

Three, chrysanthemum downy mildew control methods

1. Agricultural measures: the selection of disease-resistant chrysanthemum varieties, such as calendula, wheat pole chrysanthemum, marigold and so on.

2. Seed treatment: seed dressing with 50% thiram WP before sowing.

3. Strengthen field management: Strengthen fertilizer and water management to prevent ponding and moisture retention.

4. chemical control

At the early stage of disease, spraying 600 times solution of 72% Kelu WP, spraying 800-1000 times solution of 60% Mieke WP and 500 times solution of 65% Manineb WP, spraying 800 times solution of 69% Anke·Mangzinc WP, spraying every 10 days, spraying 80% control effect.
