Abstract

Herbaceous peonies (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) are grown throughout temperate regions of the world for their use as high-value cut flowers. Despite their popularity, little information is available on diseases and disease management of this flower compared with other ornamental geophytes, such as tulips or lilies. From the literature, it is clear that the fungal diseases Botrytis gray mold and leaf blotch are among the most economically important diseases of peony; however, many other fungi, viruses, bacteria, and nematodes affect peonies worldwide. Management recommendations used for pathogens of peonies rely mainly on general disease management strategies and information on pathogen biology and epidemiology from other pathosystems.
