Rhabdocline weirii

Rhabdocline weirii is a fungal plant pathogen. The pathogen, along with "Rhabdocline pseudotsugae", causes Rhabdocline needlecast; "R. weirii" only affects Douglas-fir trees. The disease causes the needles of the tree to discolor and eventually fall from the tree. The pathogen often makes Douglas-fir trees unsalable as Christmas trees and affects the Christmas tree farming industry.
