• The Botryosphaeriaceae: genera and species known from culture (2013, background): “Slippers et al. (2007) initially regarded Diplodia malorum Fuckel to be a more appropriate name for this fungus.”
• Morphology, phylogeny and pathogenicity of Botryosphaeria and Neofusicoccum species associated with drupe rot of olives in southern Italy (2008, background): “This fungus is known to be associated with a wide range of hosts in most regions of the world (Slippers et al., 2004a, 2007).”
• Diplodia seriata, the anamorph of "Botryosphaeria" obtusa (2007, background): “Slippers et al. (2007) initially regarded Diplodia malorum Fuckel to be a more appropriate name.”
• Botryosphaeriaceae as endophytes and latent pathogens of woody plants: diversity, ecology and impact (2007, methodology): “In South Africa, this fungus does not occur commonly on Eucalyptus, yet it is relatively common in the area on native Syzygium and introduced Vitis, and to a lesser extent native Widdringtonia and introduced fruit trees (Pavlic et al. 2007; Slippers et al. 2005c, 2007).”
• Grapevine trunk diseases: complex and still poorly understood (2013, background): “In addition to grapevine, they infect several varieties of fruit trees, inducing a large number of decays (Slippers & Wingfield, 2007; Slippers et al., 2007; Farr & Rossman, 2011; Úrbez-Torres, 2011).”
• Botryosphaeriaceae associated with Terminalia catappa in Cameroon, South Africa and Madagascar (2010, background): “Infected plants can exhibit a multiplicity of symptoms such as die-back, canker, blight and rot on all above ground plant organs (Punithalingam 1980; Slippers et al. 2007).”
