dc.description.abstractFusarium circinatum is a highly virulent invasive pathogen that causes the disease commonly known as pine pitch canker (PPC). On mature trees, the most common symptoms of PPC include resin bleeding, resinous cankers, wilting of needles and dieback. In nurseries the main symptoms are yellowish needles, and wilting of foliage and shoots. PPC is considered one of the most important diseases of conifers globally and at least 60 species of Pinus along with Pseudotsuga menziesii are known to be susceptible. Quarantine regulations are crucial to minimize the risk of new introductions into disease‐free countries. However, if these measures fail, implementation of environmentally friendly control methods is currently encouraged in an integrated management approach that minimizes the use of chemicals in forests. This review therefore summarizes current knowledge of biological control using endophytic fungi, bacteria and viruses, and other environmentally friendly methods to control PPC, including thermotherapy, natural products with fungicidal effects, promoters of innate host resistance mechanisms and breeding for resistance. Key research gaps to be addressed for improvement of effective management of this disease are discussed.en_ZA

dc.description.sponsorshipThis article is based upon work carried out during COST Action FP1406 PINESTRENGTH (Pine pitch canker‐strategies for management of Gibberella circinata in greenhouses and forests), supported by COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology). This work is a contribution of URGENTpine (PTDC/AGR‐FOR/2768/2014) funded by FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, I.P., through national funds, and the co‐funding by the FEDER (POCI‐01‐0145‐FEDER‐016785), within the PT2020 Partnership Agreement and Compete 2020. Thanks are due for the financial support to CESAM (UID/AMB/50017/2019), to FCT/MEC through national funds, and the co‐funding by the FEDER, within the PT2020 Partnership Agreement and Compete 2020. FCT supported J. M.‐G. (SFRH/BPD/122928/2016), J. A. (SFRH/BD/120967/2016), G. P. (SFRH/BPD/101669/2014) and A. A. (IF/00835/2013). Funds from the Spanish Government via the MINECO/FEDER grant NGSFORFUSARIUM (AGL2015‐69370‐R) and FUTURPIN (AGL2015‐68274‐C03‐02‐R) are also acknowledged. E. J.
