Alfalfa Fungal Diseases and Management Notes
Rust and downy mildew affect alfalfa and clover with pustules on leaves and fungal threads on the lower leaf surface. Rust spores form in ruptured pustules while downy mildew spreads via windborne spores from gray felt on leaf undersides. Early spring damp weather and late summer resting spores drive seasonal damage. control methods not investigated, but cutting and burning after thorough drying helps reduce spores. Anthracnose injures clover and alfalfa, attacking leaf petioles, stems near clusters, and may kill whole plants at seed ripening stage. Field observations include a May 1907 incident on Hunter's Island Kansas.
