In apricots, the fungus reveals a canker surrounding a pruning wound.

[5] Eutypa lata was first found in Californian grapevines by English et al.1962,[6] a few years after its discovery elsewhere.

[7] Travadon et al., 2011 finds that E. lata is an entirely or almost entirely sexual population here but asexual reproduction may be a rare occurrence.

[9] The fungus was difficult to identify on the basis of colony morphology and could be out-competed by other fungi when isolated from wood.
