The leaf blight or apple-scab fungus may be kept in check by spraying with Bordeaux mixture just before the flowers open, and again after they fall (see Spraying).
It will be nearly as well flavored as if left on the tree; and, as the fungus usually attacks only the ripe fruit, a considerable part of the crop may be saved.
Orchards which are thoroughly sprayed with Bordeaux mixture for the leaf blight and fruit-rot fungus are less liable to attacks of black knot.
After the fungus once gets into the tissues of the host-plant, it is difficult, if not impossible, to kill it.
If, however, the fungicide is upon the plant before the fungus is, the parasite may not be able to obtain a foothold.

He showed that the fungus (Hemileia vastatrix) was one of the Uredineae and that infection was produced by the wind-borne uredospores.

In the case of this chestnut fungus, we have a fairly typical fungus in certain respects.
Sooner or later the fungus will produce the fruiting bodies, after it has obtained a sufficient amount of food to justify the formation of these more highly organized structures.
We have, then, two types of spores, either one of which can reproduce the fungus under suitable conditions.

A fungus is a kind of plant which does not, on account of the absence of the green coloring matter, manufacture its own food.
President Morris: As I understand it, this fungus lives in the cambium layer of the bark, very much as Diaporthe parasitica does, and at such a depth that spraying is not much advantage.
