119710_3 Principi di patologia vegetale in Sustainable management of forest and urban green space L-25 MAZZAGLIA Angelo
(syllabus)
Introduction to plant pathology, historical notes. Examples of diseases of particular economic and social impact. The basic concepts are: Disease and damage in plant pathology. Abiotic (non-infectious) and biotic (infectious) diseases. Disease triangle Koch’s postulates. Classification of diseases Complex diseases Overview of the causal agents of infectious diseases and their biology Fungi Oomycetes Bacteria Phytoplasms Viruses and viroids Parasitic phanerogam The steps of disease onset From pre-infection to escape. Inoculum concept: charge, density and potential Pathogenicity Symptomatology Difference between symptoms and signs Types of symptoms: chromatic alterations, necrosis, cankers, tumors, early fall of organs, alteration of shape and size, exudates, alterations of water status Critical analysis of symptoms Diagnostics Critical approach to diagnosis: anamnesis, field observations, sample collection and storage. Basic methods: in vivo and in vitro laboratory diagnosis, pathogen isolation, microscopic observation of structures. Advanced methods: immunological and molecular techniques

(syllabus)
During the course the main diseases that affect the ornamental species of the urban green (herbaceous, shrubs and, above all, woody species) will be described: • Abiotic damage in urban environments: injuries; damage from urban interventions such as pruning, roadworks (pavements, laying pipes, etc.), contiguity with buildings, etc. • Fungal diseases of the root system: root rot by Armillaria spp., Heterobasidion annosum s.l.; Rosellinia necatrix. Specific diagnostic tools (root inspector, etc) • bark cankers: Seiridium cardinale; Nectria spp. • Tracheomycosis: Dutch Elm Disease by Ophiostoma ulmi and novo-ulmi; sycamore canker by Ceratocystis platani. • Crown diseases (examples): powdery mildews, anthracnose, leaf curl, leaf necrosis. • Rusts on ornamental species. • Bacterial diseases: bacterial rot and cankers. • Virosis and phytoplasmosis: examples on ornamental species. • Turf diseases: Root and foliar diseases • Wood decay: compartmentalization theory (CODIT) • The stability assessment: • Failure Risk Class (FRC). • Diagnostic Tools (VTA, Pressler’s Succhiel, Fracking Meter, Resistograph, Pulse Hammer, Tomograph, Shigometer, Ground Probing Radar (GPR), Compressed Air Digging Systems (Air-Spade®). • Dendrotherapy. • Guidelines for the protection of monumental trees
