The manifestations of the pathology are typical for the genus Prunus and include damage to the vascular system, which manifests as wilting, yellowing or browning of leaves, and dieback of individual branches. Characteristic dark streaks are observed in the xylem of infected hybrids. There is currently no information in scientific literature regarding specific resistance genes to this fungus.
