blackberry primocane disease?

I just noticed the tip and side leafs wilting on a 3' primocane from an Apache blackberry. Two others on the same plant are normal- just wondering what causes this? Some kind of root fungus or disease? Would hate to see this spread- I once had to destroy a large planting of Ebony King (in Tennessee) after rosette attacked new growth and spread through the rows.

We've had unusually heavy rain here the last two weeks- over 18" so the soil has been waterlogged.

thanks.
