Genus of fungi


Dermea is a genus of ascomycete fungi[1] which attack trees, especially Prunus fruit trees - for instance, D. prunasti causes greengage plum die-back. On the whole, although Dermea species are considered pathogenic, not many serious diseases have been reported to be caused by this genus.[2]
