Identification
and confirmation—Sunscald
Sunscald causes fruit to become brown and leathery on the side exposed to the sun. Black mold may also
cause large lesions on fruit, but these are usually covered with a black velvety layer of spores. Fruit
affected by late blight also remain firm with brown blotches but those are usually around the calyx and
top part of fruit.
