Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 DEF
Maladie causée par le champignon Botrytis cinera affectant les feuilles, les pétioles, les tiges et les fruits, surtout dans l'ambiance humide des serres. 2, record 1, French, - pourriture%20grise
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Sur les fruits, l'infection commence habituellement à la pointe florale ou au bout du pédoncule; quand l'humidité est forte, une croissance de champignons de couleur grisâtre s'installe rapidement, et une pourriture molle aqueuse gâte le fruit. Sur les tiges, l'infection commence d'ordinaire par l'installation du champignon sur le tissu mourant, à la base des pétioles de la feuille ou à la souche des pétioles après la chute des feuilles. Une fois implanté sur le tissu malade, le champignon envahit la tige, la cerne souvent complètement, et fait mourir le plant. 3, record 1, French, - pourriture%20grise
