The pathogenicity of Lophodermium pinastri, L. conigenum and L. seditiosum on 14‐month old transplants was investigated in Scotland. While L. seditiosum was found to be a serious pathogen, L. conigenum and L. pinastri were not. Under outdoor conditions, L. seditiosum was found to kill needles five months after inoculation.
