M. pini is one the most widespread and dangerous pathogenic fungi in the plantations of Pinus species in the world. This fungus has been observed on more than fifty Pinus species, and on European Larch, Douglas Fir, Norway Spruce, Serbian Spruce and Sitka Spruce. In Serbia, M. pini caused greatest damage in plantations of Austrian pine (P. nigra Arn). In Serbia both states of the fungus have been observed, i.e. conidiomata and ascostromata. Conidia are far more significant in the infection process. The critical period for infections is May - June. Of the all tested fungicides, the best results have been obtained by copper protectants. In heavily infected plantations of Austrian pine the protections should be carried out in the period when the plantations are 5-20(25) years old.
