 Specific replant disease - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One theory is that replant disease is due to a whole menagerie of tree pathogens - fungi, bacteria, nematodes, viruses and other organisms.
As a rule, replant disease persists for around fifteen years in the soil, although this varies with local conditions.
In this case, and replanting is unavoidable, a large hole should be dug out, and the soil removed and replaced with ‘clean’ soil from a site where susceptible plants have not been grown.

These diseases result in the death of apple trees by destroying the roots and stem portions near the soil line, respectively.
Orchardists are advised to be on the lookout constantly for these diseases and follow proper diagnostic approach since most of the underground/ root-zone disturbances cause above-ground symptoms like sparse growth, restriction of leaf and fruit size, and shedding of foliage, resulting in a sick appearance of the trees.
For the control of collar rot disease, the infected collar region of the trees should be scarified with the blunt side of a knife and pasted with copper oxychloride or mancozeb or metalaxyl.

 Growing Wheat in Apple Orchards: A Possible Aid in Preventing Replant Disease
He's discovered that in the Pacific Northwest, replant disease seems to be caused by buildup of a complex of four soilborne fungi: Cylindrocarpon, Phytophthora, Pythium, and Rhizoctonia.
For years, scientists have debated whether the cause was biological—a disease or organism—or a result of abiotic factors, such as soil chemistry.
Although the specific chemicals have not been identified, Mazzola found that after an orchard has been in place about 3 years, apples promote a fungal population that can cause replant disease.

 When Rose Diseases Aren't
When a malady is mistaken for a disease because the rose exhibits the symptoms of a disease.
A soil malady often mistaken as a viral disease is boron deficiency.
For the day-to-day rosarian, the best counter for this disease is to change out the soil when a new rose is planted in the same location of a previously planted rose.

 Crop Profile for Cherries (Sweet) in Washington
If land is not replanted to orchard for about five seasons, tree roots are removed, and the land is either allowed to fallow or is planted to wheat or green manures, the replant disorder usually is no longer a danger.
The amount of disease that appears in the orchard depends on the vigor of the trees, the relative number of Verticillium microsclerotia in the soil, and the age of the trees.
This disease has been difficult to study and control, as the pathogen is very widespread, lives as an epiphyte on the host and weeds, invades host tissues without inducing symptoms, and causes disease that has symptoms similar to those caused by other pathogens.

 Rose Replant Disease   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The common practices developed over decades were to either remove all old soil, discontinue use of a particular plot for four or five years, or to fumigate the soil with a take-no-prisoners gas such as methyl bromide.
Perhaps the appropriate term to apply would be Rose Replant Symptoms, since this would allow us to explore the range of soil problems that would lead to bush decline, and give better direction to resolving a specific problem.
Studies of apple and cherry replant disease also point to nematodes as one possible cause for the symptoms.

 Fungus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Parasitic fungi infect animals, including humans, other mammals, birds, and insects, with consequences varying from mild itching to death.
Other parasitic fungi infect plants, causing diseases such as butt rot and making trees more vulnerable to toppling.
The vast majority of vascular plants are associated with mutualistic fungi, called mycorrhizae, which assist their roots in absorption of nutrients and water.

 Glossary   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
B. Savory (Specific replant diseases, 1966, Farnham Royal, Commonwealth Agricultural Bureaux), proposed the term specific replant disease,to distinguish the condition from one caused by a `soil sickness` affecting unrelated plant species.
In accordance with our recommendations for the use of disease and disorder, we suggest that `specific replant disease` should be used when the effect is attributable to the action of a parasitic organism; `specific replant disorder` when attributable to a non-parasitic factor, and `specific replant effect` when the cause is undetermined.
Vertical resistance is not synonymous with oligogenic, major gene or active resistance because it refers specifically to the interactions between races and varieties and not to the mode of inheritance or the mechanism of resistance.

I have worked with replant disease for quite a few years, and suspect that nematodes play some role in causing this complex disease.
Replant disease is caused by a complex of organisms, and maybe some other factors, and has confused plant pathologists for many years.
I see the effects of this disease in most orchard areas of the world, but it appears to be most serious in warm, dry climates (yes, such as Washington) as it is disease that greatly reduces the growth and efficiency of roots.

 Pierce's Disease   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Pierce's disease represents a serious and substantial threat to this thriving agricultural sector, and although winegrapes are suffering the most, we must also understand that Pierce's disease also places citrus, stone fruits and almonds at risk.
Pierce's disease is caused by the bacterium Xylella fastidiosa that attacks the tissues responsible for transporting water within the plant, eventually killing the vine.
The disease damaged $33 million worth of crops from 1995 to 1997 in Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino Counties, and we expect that total to climb to $50 million between 1997 and the year 2000.

Our goal is to develop a soilborne disease management program that ensures the successful establishment of new fruit trees on old orchard sites and sustains productivity of these orchards through the use of biological resources resident to the orchard ecosystem, with minimal use of external inputs.
The goal is to employ an approach to manage replant diseases in organic tree fruit production systems which will take into account the influence of the host plant on resident soil microorganisms and how host genotype may modulate the activity or composition of beneficial elements of these microbial communities.
Specific emphasis will be given to the resident population of Streptomyces spp.

There are two areas of Parc Howard which have been in the past planted with Roses namely the "Rose Garden" located in front of the Mansion and the "Old Rose Garden" which is situated on the left hand side of the entrance road from Felinfoel Road - the proposed location of the car park.
This is a soil borne disease which seriously affects the growth of Roses eventually leading to the plants dying.
There are two recommended methods for the control of this disease, namely, changing the soil completely and sterilizing, both of which have been done.

In a soil with severe specific cherry replant disease, actinomycetes could be detected in rootlets of apple, pear and mountain ash.
Frequency and intensity of colonization of these rootlets by actinomycetes were markedly lower than the rates obtained with these species of Rosaceae in a previous experiment with an apple replant disease soil.
From this is concluded that the actinomycetes which are thought to be the cause of apple replant disease are ubiquitous organisms, whose accumulation in soil takes place only in presence of suitable host plants.

 Preparation For New Plantings - Specific Replant Diseases - Hortwatch Library
When apples follow apples, or pears on quince rootstocks, a condition referred to as specific apple replant disease (SARD) is likely to occur.
The severity of replant disease depends on soil type; density of the affected species root levels in the soil, and the amount of time the land was out of the crop.
The validity of the test and its interpretation is also open to question because recent data on the affect of fumigation on replant tree performance from Hort+Research shows that even though there was little affect on tree vigor the trees growing in the fumigated treatments showed significant increase fruit numbers and particularly fruit size.

Reduced growth in replant sites is thought to be due to a range of factors some possibly nutritional but clearly biological factors are also involved as soil fumigation treatments usually improve replacement tree growth.
Apple replanting problems are often lumped together under the term, Specific Replant Disease (SRD) this is a complex condition, with no single factor involved but a range of different organisms such as fungi and nematodes.
There is no quick test to identify potential replant problems, testing needs to be undertaken a year or more in advance of orchard redevelopment and involves growing apple trees in pot trials using a range of soil samples taken from the redevelopment site and adjacent areas where no apples trees have grown.
