Citrus canker is a bacterial disease that causes blemishes or cankers to appear on the leaves, stems and fruit of a citrus tree. It is a difficult disease to eradicated. It does not harm the fruit, but over time, can make the tree less productive. Grove owners do not like this disease because the fruit with unsightly blemishes can not be sold as fresh fruit. More information can be found in Wikipedia under citrus canker, or search the internet for more information.
