What diseases affect yellow peaches? The latest complete list of disease types

When planting yellow peaches, various diseases will always occur. The harmful agents are slightly of two kinds: pathogens and pests. Relatively speaking, the harm from pathogens is greater. So which diseases are prone to occur in yellow peach trees? Today Qinnong.com will introduce several of them for everyone, so you can understand the onset conditions of these diseases.

1. Peach anthracnose

This is a disease caused by pathogens, mostly concentrated on the fruit, and it is a disease that easily expands. It mostly occurs in the high-temperature and humid environment of the summer rainy season. When it appears, the fruit is dull and lusterless, then gradually withers and hardens, and finally becomes completely shriveled. In severe cases, the branches quickly die back. When it is found, first remove the affected parts and eliminate the source of the pathogen, then spray with 3000 times 25% Amistar or 800 times 72% DuPont Curzate for treatment.

2. Peach brown rot

This is the disease most likely to appear on yellow peach fruit. Once it appears, it means the fruit is necrotic. It mostly occurs in low-temperature and humid environments, and is generally caused by fruit trees being too densely planted, which leads to the fruit being corroded by moisture. When the disease occurs, the top of the fruit begins to turn brown and is accompanied by mold. Over time, it slowly corrodes downward, and finally the entire fruit rots. At this point, it also easily spreads to the branches and trunk. For this disease, spraying 50% iprodione wettable powder 1000-2000 times solution can generally be used for prevention, with emphasis on spraying the susceptible parts.

3. Pests and diseases

This is a problem no fruit tree can avoid. The more common pests and diseases of yellow peach trees include peach fruit borer, aphids, and stink bugs, all of which are highly harmful. When the disease occurs, it usually shows as leaves beginning to curl and turn yellow, and some also rot. After opening them, the pests and diseases can be clearly seen. Such leaves are generally recommended to be burned to reduce the source of pests. A commonly used control agent is 800 times carbendazim solution, and the effect is fairly good.

4. Peach bacterial shot hole

This is the most harmful disease because it will damage the entire plant, so special attention must be paid to it. It is generally caused by poor antiviral measures in the early stage, and as the temperature rises, the disease gradually develops. The symptoms are cracking of the bark, while some show small holes on the leaves, followed by withering and necrosis. This disease needs to be treated with pesticides. For mature trees, 4000 times agricultural streptomycin sulfate solution can be used, and for sprouted trees, 72% agricultural streptomycin sulfate wettable powder 3000 times solution can be used. The effects of both are fairly good.

The above are several common diseases of yellow peach trees. During planting, prevention of various diseases must be done well in the early stage. If you wait until the disease occurs to treat it, there will still be various losses. The remaining diseased branches of affected plants must be burned to avoid secondary infection caused by this.
