Bacterial leaf spot

Bacterial leaf spot

    Causal organism: Pseudomonas mangiferae-indicae.
    • The disease manifests by forming minute water soaked spots towards the leaf tip.
    • These spots form in groups and become black as the disease advances, which are usually haloes.
    • In severe cases these spots form in groups and become necrotic. The leaf dries up in patches. The fruits may drop off.
