Taphrina deformans
Posted on: October 31, 2018 by Maria Held
If you experienced peach leaf curl on your trees this spring it is time for treatment when most of the leaves are off the tree. Resistant varieties are a good option for home gardeners.

Final 2018 psyllid monitoring update
Potato All Locations
Potato Psyllid
Posted on: October 5, 2018 by Lucy Standley
This week we collected 2 psyllids from sticky traps in one intense field in Twin Falls County. We only had traps deployed in 2 fields given that all of the other fields in the monitoring program had been vine killed or harvested.
One of the psyllids collected last week tested positive for Lso (liberibacter), the bacterium that causes zebra chip. This is only the third psyllid this season to test positive, and this year still has shown the lowest overall incidence in Lso for any season we have been monitoring. Nevertheless, this finding underscores the importance of maintaining an IPM program through the end of the season. We have found that ZC can develop in tubers that were inoculated with Lso-positive psyllids as late as 2 weeks (and in rare cases 1 week) before vine kill.
This week’s report concludes the University of Idaho psyllid/Lso monitoring program. We will only provide an update next Friday if we detect Lso in the psyllids collected this week.
Thanks to all of the growers, crop consultants, and other industry folks who contributed to this work.
A summary of this year’s results is expected to be presented at the Idaho Association of Plant Protection meeting in Twin Falls in November and at the Idaho Potato Conference.

Potato Psyllid
Posted on: September 28, 2018 by Lucy Standley
Psyllids were collected this week on sticky traps in potato in the following counties: Canyon (3 fields) and Twin Falls (1 field).
This week, we collected 9 psyllids from sticky cards (across 4 intense sites).
Most of the 95 fields that were in the monitoring program have been vine killed or harvested. We had traps deployed in all 6 of the remaining fields and found psyllids in 4 of them (66.7%).
All psyllids collected last week tested negative for Lso (liberibacter), the bacterium that causes zebra chip. With only two Lso-positive psyllids found to date, percent incidence has been considerably lower than in all previous years. Nevertheless, we urge growers and crop consultants to maintain their IPM programs. We have found that ZC can develop in tubers that were inoculated with Lso-positive psyllids as late as 2 weeks (and in rare cases 1 week) before vine kill.
“Heat maps” of this week’s results will not be made given that the low number of sites remaining tends to result in skewed maps.

potato psyllids
Posted on: September 21, 2018 by Erik Wenninger
Psyllids were collected this week on sticky traps in potato in the following counties: Canyon (4 fields), Jerome (1 field), and Twin Falls (1 field).
This week, we collected 40 psyllids from sticky cards (across 6 intense sites and 0 light sites). We also collected a few eggs and nymphs in leaf samples at two sites in Canyon County; when we have found immature psyllids in the past, they have typically occurred very late in the season as is the case here.
Most of the 95 fields that were in the monitoring program have been vine killed or harvested. We had traps deployed in all 14 of the remaining fields and found psyllids in 6 of them (43%). There are now just a handful of fields being monitored for next week’s report.
All psyllids collected last week tested negative for Lso (liberibacter), the bacterium that causes zebra chip.

Potato Psyllid
Posted on: September 14, 2018 by Lucy Standley
Psyllids were collected this week on sticky traps in potato in the following counties: Canyon (4 fields), Twin Falls (2 fields), and Cassia (6 fields).
This week, we collected 84 psyllids from sticky cards (across 7 light sites and 5 intense sites).
Many of the 95 fields that were in the monitoring program are being vine killed or harvested. We had traps deployed in all 26 of the remaining fields and found psyllids in 12 of these 26 fields (46.2%).
All psyllids collected last week tested negative for Lso (liberibacter), the bacterium that causes zebra chip. With only two Lso-positive psyllids found to date, percent incidence is currently considerably lower than in most previous years. Nevertheless, we urge growers and crop consultants to have an IPM program in place.
“Heat maps” of this week’s results will be included on the UI and WSU websites (see links below). “Heat maps” describe predicted psyllid densities across the landscape, based on our trap counts and on predictive models developed over six years of psyllid monitoring in Idaho. These maps, developed in collaboration with WSU, should be used as a guideline, but not a definitive count of the number of insects in any given field at any given point in time. “Low,” “Moderate,” “High,” and “Very High” designations are arbitrary categories that illustrate relative abundance and should not be used as “thresholds.” More details on the “heat maps” can be found in Potato Progress Volume XVII, Number 2, 15 February 2017.
With so few sites still being monitored this late in the season, it is possible that the heat maps may appear a bit skewed.

Powdery Mildew Outbreak
Landscape and Garden Treasure Valley
Powdery Mildew
Posted on: September 6, 2018 by Maria Held
Powdery mildew has been observed on squash, zucchini and carrots. It affects almost any type of plant including ornamentals such as peony, lupine and pansies.
Powdery mildews are characterized by spots or patches of white to grayish, talcum-powder-like growth.
It grows readily in our warm and dry climate. When available choose resistant or tolerant varieties. The disease is common in crowded plantings where air circulation is poor and in damp, shaded areas. Avoid overhead irrigation and late summer application of nitrogen fertilizer once symptoms occur. Remove and destroy all infected plant parts (leaves, etc.). Do not compost infected plant debris. Temperatures often are not hot enough to kill the fungus.
Chemicals are most effective when combined with cultural controls.

Sunscald in peppers and tomatoes
Landscape and Garden Treasure Valley - Idaho
Posted on: August 20, 2018 by Maria Held
Due to high sun exposure on peppers the fruit may develop areas that go from green to yellow and sunken, then become dry and brown. In the case of cucumbers the green bleaches out to white and the tissue becomes soft. Because of extreme temperatures this is occurring more than usual this season. Sufficient leaf cover is the best prevention. Shading the affected plants especially on the west side with shade cloth is helpful.

This week, we collected 36 psyllids from sticky cards (across 15 light sites and 4 intense sites).
We had traps deployed in all 95 of the 95 fields (100%) monitored this year and found psyllids in 19 of the monitored fields (20%). However, we are still waiting to receive card data from 3 sites.
This week we also collected one psyllid from vacuum sampling in one Canyon county field.
All psyllids collected last week tested negative for Lso (liberibacter), the bacterium that causes zebra chip.
Although psyllid numbers continue to be relatively low thus far this year, we are now starting to see a few more captures in eastern Idaho. With only two Lso-positive psyllids found to date, percent incidence is currently considerably lower than in most previous years.
Nevertheless, we urge growers and crop consultants to have an IPM program in place.
