- Intervention effect Copper or phosphite sprays applied on pruning wounds of sweet cherry provided minimal to no protection against bacterial canker infection.
- Intervention effect Leaving a pruning stub when removing a limb may protect sweet cherry against pseudomonas-incited cankers.
- Intervention effect Pruning sweet cherry shortly after harvest in late July may best limit bacterial canker infection, according to field pruning-date experiments.
