SUMMARY A species of Fusarium apparently identical with Fusarium gemmiperdaAderhold was isolated from dead peach buds from Georgia. A description of the fungus and its reaction to culture media are given. It is shown by experiment that under conditions of extreme moisturethe fungus causes a budrot of the peach, sweet cherry, and sour cherry. The disease is probably not of great importance under ordinary con-ditions, but it is possible that it may cause considerable damage duringexcessively moist weather. Its distribution is not known.

B.—Photomicrograph of conidia of Fusarium gemmiperda from an i8-day-old cul-ture on corn-meal agar. (512) Budrot of Peach Caused by Fusarium Plate I.
