Mildew of oleaster ( Schlecht.) registered in large industrial cities (Pavlodar, Aksu, Ekibastuz) of the Pavlodar region.

Vegetation plays a very important role in industrial regions in terms of not only air purification, but also oxygen enrichment, air humidity, and city aesthetics. The paper presents the authors' study of oleaster mildew during 2012-2013 in the cities of Pavlodar, Ekibastuz, and Aksu. The species composition of mildew, patterns of its growth and reproduction, seasonal dynamics, and the level of trees infection according to a six-score scale were determined. Three cultivars of mildew from three genera were registered. The species composition of mildew of oleaster is studied for the first time in large industrial cities of the Pavlodar region. The comparative analysis of the systematic structure of phytopathogenic fungi was followed by the study of the micro flora of green planting in megalopolises. The seasonal dynamics of growth, development, and reproduction was determined. The impact of pests on host-plants was studied. Timely diagnosis and localization of disease outbreak increases the likelihood of successful treatment and saving of plants.
