WORLD TOBACCO SCIENTIFIC CONGRESS EUROPEAN COUNTRIES' CONTRIBUTION TO THE STUDY OF TOBACCO MILDEW (NO. 3) (PERONOSPORA TABACINA ADAM),
Abstract
The report contains a study of the state of the present knowledge of tobacco mildew in Europe and the results achieved up to date in the struggle against the parasite, and dwells on those problems and aspects which have not yet been clarified and which still require further study. Tobacco Mildew has a great economic importance for North America and Australia, and that, since three years ago, it has implanted itself in the Old Continent with such intensity as to render necessary a common organization devoted to tracking it and to issuing directives for the purpose of preventing it and for fighting it. Last year the epidemic followed two typical courses, one of them in the Mediterranean region and the other in the Continental Zone. In the Mediterranean region the first manifestations of this malady were observed in January in Tunisia and Southern Greece, and in February-March in Algeria, Greece and South Italy. (Author)
