Pecan trees can add signifi-
cantly to any home landscape or
home fruit planting. However,
special attention should be
given to selecting disease-resis-
tant varieties, says a plant
pathologist with the Texas
Agricultural Extension Service.
“The principle disease that
Texas homeowners have to
control on pecans is pecan
scab," points out Dr. Jerral
Johnson "Pecan scab is caused
by a fungus Once infection
occurs, small black spots form
on the shucks and tree foliage
Heavily infected pecans drop
prematurely or may be poorly
filled."
Trees infected with pecan
scab early in the season often
become severely defoliated,
says Johnson This defoliation
can reduce the quality of the
current season’s pecan crop and
can also reduce crops for the
next two to three years
"A number of excellent
varieties are resistant to this
fungus, including Choctaw,
Cheyenne, Shawnee and De-
sirable. Homeowners that an-
nually receive 28 inches or more
rainfall should select varieties
within this group," recom-
mends Johnson "These four
varieties have good size and will
perform well in most areas of
Texas.”
In western areas, scab is not a
major limiting factor, so other
varieties can be used with good
success, according to the plant
pathologist. Varieties such as
Wichita and Western can be
grown in these areas with little
chance of loss due to scab.
However, these varieties have a
disease known as stem end
blight This is caused by a
fungus that results in severe
loss of pecans late in the season.
This loss can amount to as much
as 25 percent of the crop.
Although certain varieties
have resistance to pecan scab, a
limited spray program will
normally have to be followed if
they are to be grown profitably
in humid areas of Texas,
