The most critical time of the fire blight disease cycle is the blossom blight phase. Flowers have open nectar pores where the disease-causing bacterium
Erwinia amylovora gains entry during favourable weather. Properly timed management with antibiotics at bloom can prevent infection to protect the health of your trees.
On
Wednesday, May 3 from 12 PM to 1 PM join Tree Fruit Specialist Michelle Cortens to learn how PomeBlight – a responsive web-based tool – can help you monitor for fire blight infection risk. The focus of this webinar is to
learn about the biology of the disease while exploring scenarios through the modeling program.
