See rye. CLOVER Black mold (Phyl- lachora Trifolii (Pers.) Fckl.).— Common red clover, crimson clover, white clover, alsike clover, and several other related plants are affected by this mold. The chief symptoms are pale spots upon the upper sides of the leaves accompanied by black dots on the lower sides. These spots at first glance so strongly resemble the sori of the rusts as to lead the disease to be mistaken for a rust by the casual observer. Though the disease is often of considerable damage, no treatment is known. Sclerotiniose, wilt (Sclerotinia Trifoliorwn Eriks.). — This wilt is possibly identical with the wilt of alfalfa. In any event it resembles it very closely. It was first noted in America, in Delaware, by Chester in 1889, later in New Jersey by Fig. 165. —Clover leaf showing spota of black mold.
