The ratio of the infected leaves was higher at the northern part of the trees (61%) as compared to other directions (46-49%), and was more lower than the higher - parts of trees. The lowest three couples of leaves were much more infected (56%) than the leaves above them (26%).The production of conidia from spot on the fallen leaves continued when the leaves were placed in humid conditions, in petri dishes, for 14 days in Aapril or 8 days in May.
