Abstract
Postharvest fruit rot diseases can be a limiting factor for storage of apples, and identifying target pathogens is the first necessary step for development and implementation of relevant measures for disease control. However, the symptoms of two new diseases, Sphaeropsis rot and speck rot, are similar to those of gray mold, and the two newly recognized diseases are often misdiagnosed as gray mold. The objective of this article is to provide a practical guide to diagnosis of these three diseases in apples. Accepted for publication 14 July 2008. Published 19 September 2008.
