Abstract/Contents: | Describes the need to determine whether a disease is caused by biotic or abiotic conditions. Explains how the situation must be looked at closely and suggests to watch out for "the presence of of mycelium from saprophytic fungi and pinpoint size black spots on the leaves", to use a diagnostic lab and to take a good sample. Includes "quick tips to diagnosing common diseases" including diseases such as anthracnose, damping-off of seedlings, fusarium patch, pink patch, pythium root rot, red leaf spot, red thread, take-all patch, yellow patch and winter anthracnose. |
