Canker of Eucalyptus grandis and E. saligna in Surinam caused by Endothia havanensis by Boerboom, J.H.A., Th Maas, P.W.

“…Initially, the disease appears in an isolated form, later causing the attack of all the trees in the plantation, which can produce a mortality rate of 90-100 percent in 7-year-old plantations. The epidemiological study indicated a notable correlation between trunk diameter and disease incidence Comparing the natural habitat of these two Eucalyptus with that of Suriname, it can be concluded that these two species would not be recommended for establishing plantations in lowland tropical areas where adverse growing conditions could induce susceptibility to Endothia havanensis.…”
