Description |
You must have heard the term "She's not just a pretty face."? This term can also be applied to the lovely marigold flower, which is not just beautiful to look at, but is also a useful diagnostic tool where Botrytis grey mold is concerned. Botrytis grey mold (BGM) is a disease, caused by the fungus Botrytis cinerea, that mainly attacks the reproductive structures of plants, especially the chickpea plant. Flower abortion is a common symptom of the disease. The disease remains undiscovered until the signs of damage become visible on the flower canopy (Fig. A). As a result, fungicides cannot be applied early enough to control the disease........... |
