Citrus sooty mould
Causal organism: Capnodium citris
It is actually not a disease. The fungus purely grows on the host surface consuming insect excreta or honey secretions of insects and plants.Growing of such blacky mold on the plant surface obstructs sunlight to reach to the photosynthetic area (green chlorophyll) of the plant thus interfering the photosynthesis process.
