Hello, as you know, there is a lot more information on bloom infection
than anything else. So I don't think anyone has all the answers to
your questions. Further, many possibilities can coexist with varying
degrees of importance.
In other words: it is VERY possible to inoculate a tree with

The question is, what happens to the bacteria when
it gets warmer? Does it just go dormant in the tree?
My understanding is that moisture availability drives secondary cycles of the
population. Warmer weather won't help unless it leads to drier weather. When
dry weather begins to prevail,
Axel,
If I had a 4 year old tree in an orchard of 200 trees with fireblight that
bad, I would yank it out of the ground today!
In my experience, 4 year old trees with that bad an infection don't survive.
It sounds like the bacteria is running faster than you can cut and in my
experience it will

1) Fireblight is systemic in the tree
2) Fireblight was brought to the tree from an outside vector.
Thanks.

You're in a tough place Alex. Bacterial diseases are generally tough, and in
woody plants like apples, incredibly persistent. If you're cutting out infected
material, I hope you're cutting back at least 6 from the infection. Any pest
control material you use right now may be futile until
warmer? Does it just
go dormant in the tree?
