Bacterial blight is a general term for a disease that affects a wide range of plants, caused by several different species of bacteria. The symptoms of bacterial blight can vary depending on the type of plant that is infected, but they often include wilting, leaf spots, and stem lesions.
Environmental favorable factors for pests/Diseases:
- Cool temperatures: Temperatures in the range of 21-27°C are ideal for bacterial blight development.
- High humidity: High humidity (above 85%) promotes the spread and development of bacterial blight by allowing the bacteria to survive and disperse more easily in water droplets.
- Water-soaked spots on leaves
- Brown, dead spots in the center of leaves
- Yellowing and wilting of leaves
- Streaks or scabs on stems
- Blighting of flowers and fruits
