What is smut disease describe its symptoms and control measures?

Loose smut of barley is caused by Ustilago nuda. It is a disease that can destroy a large proportion of a barley crop. Loose smut replaces grain heads with smut, or masses of spores which infect the open flowers of healthy plants and grow into the seed, without showing any symptoms.

Is rust a fungal disease?

Rust diseases are caused by a specialized group of fungi called the rust fungi. These fungi are obligate parasites, which means they can only grow on a living host. Rust fungi have several spore stages in their life cycles. Many rust species have five spore stages while others have as few as three spore stages.

What is the black stuff growing in my yard?

It is slime mold, of which there are many varieties. The black substance on lawns is a primitive organism that is actually beneficial. It creeps along leaf blades eating dead organic matter, bacteria and even other molds. Slime mold on grass is not damaging to the turf, but if appearance is a problem you can remove it.

How do you treat rust on plants?

How to Control Rust Fungi

  1. Remove all infected parts and destroy them. For bramble fruits, remove and destroy all the infected plants and replant the area with resistant varieties.
  2. Clean away all debris in between plants to prevent rust from spreading.
  3. Avoid splashing water onto the leaves, as this can help spread rust.

What is bacterial leaf blight?

What it does. Bacterial blight is caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae. It causes wilting of seedlings and yellowing and drying of leaves.

How can anthracnose be prevented?

Control and Prevention

Remove and destroy any infected plants in your garden. For trees, prune out the dead wood and destroy the infected leaves. You can try spraying your plants with a copper-based fungicide, though be careful because copper can build up to toxic levels in the soil for earthworms and microbes.

What plants are affected by verticillium wilt?

Verticillium wilt is a typically fatal disease that affects a wide range of deciduous woody ornamentals in Wisconsin. Trees most commonly and severely affected are maple and ash. Other trees and shrubs such as barberry, catalpa, elm, lilac, linden, smoke-tree and redbud susceptible.

Is blight a fungal disease?

Blight is a fungal disease which spreads through spores blown by winds from one area to another, rapidly spreading the infection. The early signs can be hard to spot, although brown patches on the leaves and stems quickly appear (see above picture).
