Abstract: To understand the disease situation of vulnerable plant Juglans regia, we investigated the proportions of four diseases of J. regia with different age classes in different slope aspects in the Wild Walnut Nature Conservation Area of Xinjiang. We analyzed the correlation of disease types and disease grades with the diameter at breast height (DBH) of J. regia and slope aspects. The results showed that the main diseases of J. regia in the reserve were walnut brown spot disease (95.8%), walnut deadwood disease (90.5%), walnut black spot disease (74.4%), and walnut rot disease (7.7%). J. regia was susceptible to walnut brown spot disease in all the four slope aspects, with walnut deadwood disease on shady and semi-shady slopes, walnut black spot disease on sunny and shady slopes, and walnut rot disease on semi-sunny and semi-shady slopes. The proportion of diseased plants with the four diseases decreased with the increases of disease grades (1-4 grades) in the four slope aspects. Across the four slope aspects, the middle-aged trees had the largest proportion of walnut deadwood disease, walnut black spot disease and walnut brown spot disease, followed by old trees and young trees. No diseased seedlings were found. Walnut rot disease only occurred in old trees. There was significant positive correlation between DBH of J. regia and the four diseases. Walnut black spot disease had significant negative correlation with slope aspect. There was correlation between different disease grades of walnut deadwood disease, walnut rot disease and walnut black spot disease with DBH and slope aspects.
