Trends of prevalence and intensity of peae-blight. discussion See text for tendency to decrease Avas not maintained in 1926, however, for in that year 21 records representing 4,806 trees gave the high prevalence index of and a twig intensity index of In 1927 the epidemic was again mild, the prevalence of the dis- ease being only per cent, and its twig intensity per cent. This very sharp reduction in the severity of blight was continued into 1928, when the prevalence index reached the very low point of and the twig intensity index fell to The year-to-year trends of the prevalence and twig intensity phases of the pear blight epidemics are shown graphically in Figure 18.
