Pitch Canker Disease Gibberella circinata ( Fusarium circinatum) Nirenberg & O'Donnell 1998 Photo courtesy of T. R. Gordon

Pitch Canker Large old canker on main stem Pitch canker was first identified in CA at New Brighton State Beach, Santa Cruz County in It is vectored by several species of bark, engraver, cone, twig and deathwatch beetles associated with Monterey pine, Pinus radiata Photo courtesy of Andrew Storer

The Source: Pine Seeds Photo courtesy of Mishobonzai Managed pine forestry is a very large and international industry. Pitch canker was found in the Southeastern US in Southeastern pine growers ship pine seed to CA in order to grow seedlings quickly and efficiently, which are then shipped back to the SE. The fungus disease survives on the seed. This is the probable origin of Pitch Canker in CA. Photos courtesy of the Temperate Forest Foundation
