Symptoms of Peach Leaf curl – Taphrina deformans

• It attacks the leaves, causing curling and blister formation.


• The leaves start turning yellowish or reddish and fall off prematurely.
• The infected portion develops a pink or reddish bronze colour.
• Growth of the tree is affected with a reduction of yield.
Sooty Mould – Capnodium ramosum
• The fungi produce mycelium which is superficial and dark. They row
on sugary secretions of the plant hoppers. Black encrustation is
formed which affect the photosynthetic activity.
• The fungus grows on the leaf surface on the sugary substances
secreted by jassids, aphids and scale insects.
Cercospora – Mycosphaerella

Small circular brown


spots with shot hole
symptoms
Sigatoka leaf spot – Mycosphaerella
musicola
Root rot

•Pycnidial stage – Macrophomina phaseolina


•Sclerotial stage – Rhizoctonia bataticola
•Root bark portions are shredding
Rice brown spot
• Sesame seed shaped spots
• Symptoms appear as minute spots on the coleoptile, leaf blade, leaf
sheath, and glume, being most prominent on the leaf blade and glumes.
• The spots become cylindrical or oval, dark brown with yellow halo.
• The several spots coalesce and the leaf dries up.
• The seedlings die and affected nurseries can be often recognised from a
distance by scorched appearance.
• Sunflower Alternaria blight – Alternaria helianthi
• Tomato early blight – Alternaria solani
• Concentric rings are present
Apple scab – Venturia inaequalis
• Small, rough, black, circular lesions on their skin
• Fruits after keeping in cold storage.
• Affected fruits rot due to secondary infection of the lesions
• Ascus is slightly spatulate in shape
• Ascospores are 2-celled, yellowish with the upper cell shorter and
somewhat wider than the lower cell, oval shaped
• low temperatures of 4 and 8°C favours for the development of disease.
Aspergillus
• Eurotium, Emericella
Penicillium
• Talaromyces
Three types of powdery mildew
Ergot or sugary disease or Honey dew disease
• Cream to pink mucilaginous droplets of "honeydew"
ooze out of infected florets on pearl millet panicles.
• Within 10 to 15 days, the droplets dry and harden, and
dark brown to black sclerotia develop in place of seeds
on the panicle.
• Sclerotia are larger than seed and irregularly shaped,
and generally get mixed with the grain during threshing
Fusarium
• Gibberella, Nectria
