Littleleaf disease is a site and pest complex. This disease complex destroys the ephemeral, absorbing root fans of large pines on heavy clay soils. The primary causal agent is the root rot fungi Phytophthora cinnamomi, although other soil pathogens play a role. Littleleaf is a disease of mature / overmature pines on eroded, compacted, and poorly drained sites with little or no effective A horizon containing organic matter.
