-
(University of Hawaii, 2008-11)When coffee is grown without shade, as it is in Hawaii, weed management in the understory can be a problem. Careful use of systemic herbicides such as glyphosate is required. Symptoms of herbicide damage are illustrated.
-
(University of Hawaii, 2009-01)This publication discusses the korthal mistletoes, which are functional components of natural ecosystems in Hawaii, as parasitic seed plants capable of inducing disease in their woody hosts, including many native species.
-
(University of Hawaii, 2006-10)Tea is a relatively new crop in Hawaii. This publication describes five diseases, three of which are not yet present here but could be serious problems if introduced. The guide is intended to help tea growers identify the ...
-
(University of Hawaii, 2004-04)Flower injury caused by diseases, insects, mites, slugs, and birds, and mechanical, physiological, and environmental factors are illustrated.
-
(University of Hawaii, 2002-08)Causes of pocket rot and other fungal infections of taro corm are discussed. Careful attention to planting only disease-free huli (propagules) is emphasized.
