Brown Rot of Pome and Stone Fruits - Monilinia fructigena 


fruit rot - injured fruit - A.L. Jones, Michigan State University The most common symptom is brown rot of apple and pear. Not all apple varieties are equally susceptible. Superficial circular brown lesions are frequent on wounds, expanding outwardly on the surface of the fruit, and result in a soft decay of the flesh. Infected apples may be shiny and turn from tan to black as the disease develops.

Hosts: Grape (Vitis), apple (Malus), peach and plum (Prunus), and pear (Pyrus).
