YES I COPY IT FROM SLIDE SHARE BUT HERE I PRESENT IN LITTLE BIT DESCRIPTIVE FORM

3.  Symptoms
 Blisters on surface of leaves which cause
leaves to be russetted; twigs may be
stunted and leaves may drop from trees.
 Cause
 Arachnid
 Comments
 Blister mites transmit fig mosaic virus;
mites undergo several generations per
year.
 Management
 Applications of hoticultural oils or sulfur
sprays are effective at controlling blister
mites and should be applied if the mites
were a problem the previous year;
chemical treatments should be applied
before bloom.

4.  Symptoms
 Holes in fruit; staining of fruit surface from
insect excrement; adult insect is a moderate
sized green beetle reaching approx. 3 cm
(1.2 in in length) which has a distinct horn
on its head; larvae are cream colored grubs
with a brown head.
 Cause
 Insect
 Comments
 Larvae pupate in cells in the soil in late
spring; insect undergoes one generation per
year.
 Management
 Remove dead leaves and other crop debris
from the orchard floor; allowing the orchard
floor to dry out and harden prevents the
adults emerging in the Spring; saturating
the soil with water for a period of 2 days will
kill off any eggs and larvae.

6.  Symptoms
 Small, olive-green specks or sunken yellow-olive
lesions covered in green spores on fruit; water-
soaked areas on fruit surface where figs touch;
 Cause
 Fungi
 Comments
 Fungi over winter in plant debris. C.
herbarum usually more common on green
fruit, Alternaria spp. primarily a problem on ripe
fruit.
 Management
 Rot can be minimized by picking fruit before it
becomes overripe; reducing dust in orchards may
also help to reduce the incidence of rot.

7.  Symptoms
 Yellow spots and mottling on foliage; margins
of spots are diffuse and blend gradually back
into the green of the leaf; spots may be
distributed uniformly across the leaf surface or
as irregular patches; mature lesions develop a
brown-red band around their margin.
 Cause
 Virus
 Comments
 Transmitted by fig mites or by grafting from
infected tree.
 Management
 Do not collect propagation material from any
trees showing symptoms of disease; controlling
fig mites may help to reduce incidence of
disease.

8.  Symptoms
 Cankers above and below fruit; shoots
dying back; buff colored spores on shoots
in late winter or early spring; blighted
shoots; foliage on infected shoots wilting
and turning light green or brown.
 Cause
 Fungus
 Comments
 Disease emergence favors wet, cool
springs.
 Management
 Infected areas of trees should be pruned
out beginning just below the canker.
