Effect of Fall Sowing and Solar Heating of Soil on Two Conifer Seedling Diseases

Solar heating did not reduce Macrophomina phaseolina at any soil depth and eliminated Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. pini in the top 10 centimeters only. Fall sowing of Abies concolor and Pseudotsuga menziesii did not reduce disease, but did result in taller seedlings than did spring sowing. Tree Planters' Notes 37(4):17-20; 1986.
