Last Updated: 2024/11/23, Euonymus tomentosa is a small evergreen shrub commonly used in gardens, which has many advantages, but the occurrence of leaf spot will cause early defoliation, bald branches and even death, which seriously affect the normal growth and ornamental effect of Euonymus tomentosa. Symptoms: in the early stage of the disease, there are small yellow spots on the leaves, which gradually become yellowish brown and enlarge into round or irregular spots with a diameter of 2 mm to 10 mm. In the later stage, the lesions are grayish brown or grayish white, with dark edges, and there are many small black spots on the disease spots. In severe cases, the disease spots are linked together.

Euonymus tomentosa is a small evergreen shrub commonly used in gardens, which has many advantages, but the occurrence of leaf spot will cause early defoliation, bald branches and even death, which seriously affect the normal growth and ornamental effect of Euonymus tomentosa.

First, symptoms: in the early stage of the disease, there are small yellow spots on the leaves, which gradually become yellowish brown and enlarge into round or irregular spots with a diameter of 2 mm to 10 mm. The disease spot is grayish brown or grayish white in the later stage, and the edge is deep. There are many small black spots on the disease spot, and when the disease spot is serious, the disease spot is connected into one piece, and the leaves are withered and yellow.

Second, the law of the disease: the pathogen overwintered on the diseased or fallen leaves in the form of hyphae, which was the source of primary infection. Spores are transmitted by wind and rain. With the rise of temperature in the following spring, conidia were produced and invaded by stomata or scissors and wounds. The infection began in June in Hebei, and the infection was at its peak in July and August, with symptoms in the middle of August. From mid-late August to September, the disease was serious, with enlarged spots and fallen leaves. The severity of the disease is directly related to the air temperature and the amount of rainfall, and the disease is serious in years with high temperature, rainy and wet. The leaf spot of Euonymus tomentosa is easy to occur with shell insects and aphids, which aggravates the disease of the plant. It is easy to lead to diseases when extensive management, poor drainage, over-dense planting and poor ventilation.

Third, prevention and control measures: in line with the principle of "giving priority to prevention and combining prevention with prevention". Starting with the selection, planting and management of plants, the disease resistance of plants was enhanced. When diseases occur, they should be treated early, small and well, so as to restrain their development.

1. Eliminate the source of infection: remove the diseased fallen leaves in winter, burn or bury deeply, and eliminate the source of infection.

2. When planting and raising seedlings, choose strong plants to improve disease resistance.

3. Strengthen maintenance and management: select plots with good drainage and moderate fertility to facilitate plant growth, enhance tree potential and improve disease resistance. Reasonable close planting, pay attention to ventilation and light transmission, reduce leaf humidity and reduce morbidity.

4. Chemical control: the initial stage of pathogen infection is the best period for prevention and control. Drug control of Euonymus tomentosa at this time can well control the further development of the disease. The common chemicals are 80-1000 times liquid of Bishi shark, 1500 times of 75% thiophanate, 50% carbendazim and 75% chlorothalonil. Chemicals should be used alternately and sprayed every 7 to 10 days. The effect is good for 2 to 3 consecutive times. In the middle and later stage of the disease, 2000-3000 times liquid of Penicillium can be sprayed every 7 to 10 days, and the disease can be controlled in time for 2 to 3 consecutive times. Other agents used are amiceda, carbendazim and so on.
