EPPO Reporting Service (2012/190) : a root rot caused by the fungus Roesleria subterranea has also occurred sporadically in Okanagan vineyards. It is considered to be a weak root pathogen that colonizes injured or dead roots, from where it may also invade healthy roots. During a 2007/08 survey of grapevine decline problems, roesleria root rot was found in several vineyards in vines that were also infected with Cylindrocarpon.
