Like Pseudomonas, the development of Fusarium is promoted at soil temperatures of 75° to 95°F. The blight is common during the storage of cut carnations and affects the petals. The bacteria enter the plant through wounds made in the roots during transplanting, through agricultural equipment’s, nematodes and insects. Queensland Journal of Agricultural and Animal Sciences 24: 1-5. Partial resistance is more durable compared to simple resistance (Vanderplank, 1968). x�b```b``�a`2N13 �0P���c#���=@���/��1�Fn�VpH�Iu��r�I��FAAc�4�6 �d`��HK �XD���}���@�x��X����t�:�? When one of these bacteria infects a plant, it spreads by its vessels from the point of contamination to the main stem, then in all the plants. 0000005012 00000 n <<415AC61479E872499AEA03C3DEEE918A>]>> P. mossellii and P. fluorescence strains significantly reduced bacterial wilt disease under greenhouse condition. An F2:3 population of maize derived from IL731a and W6786 was mapped with RFLP markers in order to identify QTLs conferring resistance to Stewart’s disease. The strains were isolated on CPG agar and identified by PCR-based assay using universal Rs-specific primers which produced a single 280 bp amplicon specific for R. solanacearum. Then the whole plants wilt and die suddenly. The genetic diversity of R. solanacearum strains isolated from ginger growing on the Hawaiian island was determined by analysis of AFLPs, which revealed that R. solanacearum strains obtained from ginger grown in Hawaii are genetically distinct from the local strains from tomato (Race 1) and Heliconia (Race 2) (Yu et al., 2003). The first symptoms of wilt … ){ Fertilization should be optimized to promote healthy plant growth. Elaborate virus indexing programs are employed by specialist propagators to ensure production of virus-free carnation cuttings. Once the gingers are infected with bacterial wilt, some disease symptoms can be observed [50] . In humid tropical regions, one of the most common diseases is bacterial wilt (Ralstonia solanacearum - the Latin name has changed since the last edition of this book by D. Blancard). Pseudomonas is a soil-borne bacterium that enters plant roots and stem bases through wounds or openings. Rhizoctonia stem rot, caused by Rhizoctonia solani, is common in newly planted carnations. Insect Pests of Ginger. All the isolates belonged to genus Streptomyces. 0000004301 00000 n This fungus enters the stubs left after flower harvest and causes dieback and subsequent girdling of main branches. Infected trees may die within 6 months of showing the first signs of infection. )ʒ� �,�ZݚhYvXh $A�}g��N�^hJ��y�H#�H��l��͞����>;���p�y}(x�Z�<1�'����2 It can transfer to other plants through weeds and crop residues from the previous harvest. startxref As it is usual to apply fungicides to control late blight up to 4–12 times/season, considerable crop damage can be done if extreme care is not exercised. It is a devastating disease that generally occurred in production. Vascular tissue degraded by bacterial wilt appears frayed and yellowish. Eggplant cultivation is severely affected by bacterial wilt caused by R. solanacearum colonizing the xylem tissue. 0000003649 00000 n 0000002723 00000 n The disease is controlled through the use of bacteria-free seed, protective application of copper or streptomycin in the seed bed, and soil sterilization of the seedbeds. Ralstonia solanacearum is divided in different biovars based on their nutritional requirements and in different races based on their host ranges. Endophytic bacterial isolates recovered from tomato explants have been shown to exhibit antagonistic activity against tomato bacterial wilt disease (R. solanacearum). Alternaria dianthi thrives in dead plant material and can be spread by overhead or splashing water. Clusters of black spores are evident on infected leaves and stems. Zygophiala (greasy blotch) dissolves the leaf cuticle and causes small oily, radiating patterns to develop on leaves and stems of carnations. Monika Singh, ... K.D. The younger leaves show wilt and then yellowing and browning in 3–4 days. Abstract Bacterial wilt disease a serious threat for ginger production in worldwide and caused by Ralstonia solanacearum biovar III race 4. Fruits develop small, shallow, water-soaked, white spots, the centers of which later become slightly raised, tan colored, and rough. 0000013838 00000 n Ginger bacterial wilt, which is caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, is an important soil-borne disease of ginger (Ming et al., 2005). The diseased tissue is sticky and this stickiness distinguishes bacterial wilt from other pathogens. Wet harvest conditions exacerbate tuber damage and spread of inoculum. Bacterial wilt is mainly caused by Enterobacteriaceae, Erwinia tracheophyta, and Burkholderiaceae, Ralstonia solanacearum. Antagonistic strains XB86, XB169, XB177, and XB200 expressed biocontrol efficacy greater than 85% against bacterial wilt and stimulated up to 22% increase in shoot length in eggplant in the greenhouse experiment (Achari and Ramesh, 2014) (Fig. It is also soil . GEORGE N. AGRIOS, in Plant Pathology (Fifth Edition), 2005. Leaf curl is evident and plants are stunted. When cut seed is used, tuber size is less important as seed pieces usually disintegrate during the growing season if they contain pectolytic bacteria. Fungicides will control Alternaria, but benomyl increases the susceptibility of carnations to Alternaria attack. Interestingly, biovar IV was rarely encountered in both the locations compared with biovar III. 0000004544 00000 n Ginger bacterial wilt (GBW) is a destructive disease of ginger in Ethiopia. Plant Diseases Caused by Bacteria - NARRATIVES Bacterial Wilt of Ginger and Ginger Relatives Ralstonia solanacearum, Race 4 Hosts: Ginger (Zingiber officinale) and ginger relatives; red and pink ginger (Alpinia purpurata), white ginger (Hedychium coronarium), red ginger lily (Hedychium coccineum), Globba spp., Siam tulip (Curcuma alismatifolia), and spiral ginger (Costus barbatus). 0000007300 00000 n It is a serious threat to ginger production. �nUY5�������(`\B��a (1999) identified the major QTLs (swl) for Stewart’s resistance on chromosome 1S and a minor QTL on chromosome 9. Soils with naturally occurring suppressive bacteria are added as amendments to sterilized carnation beds to reduce the incidence of wilt due to Fusarium. Some primary infections result from spread of the bacteria from the seed to cotyledons or leaves, but most infections result from the penetration of bacteria through wounds of roots, stems, leaves, and fruits during transplanting, from windblown rain, and from cultural practices such as tying and suckering of tomatoes. Fusarium roseum survives as a soil saprophyte and can be transmitted by air currents. Warm, moist conditions favor disease development. Request PDF | On Apr 19, 2016, A. Kumar and others published Bacterial diseases of ginger and their control | Find, read and cite all the research you need on ResearchGate Symptoms of bacterial wilt on Eucalyptus include wilting, leaf drop, reduced growth, discoloration of the vascular system, and death of stems. In the early stages of the disease development, plants with wilt symptoms often recover during the night and wilt again following the sunny heat of the following day. 12-28). Wilting of pumpkins due to bacterial wilt. Streptomyces sp. It is also soil and seed-borne disease. Pandey, in Microbial Endophytes, 2020.

Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is one of the solanaceous crops of economic and cultural importance and is widely cultivated worldwide. In all, 28 strains of these spp., inhibited the growth of R. solanacearum and produced volatile and diffusible antagonistic compounds as well as PGB substances in vitro. ], Food Crop Production by Smallholder Farmers in Southern Africa. Like Alternaria, rust requires freestanding water for development. The research presented in this volume reveals a pathogen on the move, with a growing global profile. 4.1. Dry rot : Fusarium and Pratylenchus complex. Endophytic P. mossellii FS67 and P. fluorescence FS167 had considerably more potential to control R. solanacearum and reduced disease in greenhouse (Safdarpour and Khodakaramian, 2018). Eventually, the whole plant wilts and collapses. (C) Browning and death of vascular tissue and stem bark (D). Here we describe the disease, the typical symptoms and its diagnosis, and the damaging effects on edible ginger production in Hawaii. Ambayeba Muimba-Kankolongo, in Food Crop Production by Smallholder Farmers in Southern Africa, 2018. Plants infected with Rhizoctonia will appear pale green and wilted. Biological control of bacterial wilt of edible ginger currently is not a viable management practice. 12-28B). In all, 167 bacteria were isolated from the xylem of healthy eggplant, chili, and Solanum torvum Sw. High biocontrol and PGB activities were noticed for strains of Staphylococcus sp., Bacillus sp., Streptomyces sp., Enterobacter sp., and Agrobacterium sp. Wilting and chlorosis are later symptoms. Planting cuttings too deeply and compacting the medium also contribute to Rhizoctonia infection. C. Anne Whealy, in Introduction to Floriculture (Second Edition), 1992. Infected plants become stunted and yellow and the lower leaves dry out over a prolonged period before the plants finally wilt and die (Lum, 1973). High soil moisture and soil temperatures over 75°F contribute to Fusarium stem rot susceptibility. Leaves are dull and grayish, with subsequent chlorosis and death. After the treatment, meristems are excised, cultured, and then tested for the presence of virus with indicator plants or serological tests such as ELISA. 0000002143 00000 n Viruses in carnations can also be transmitted through vegetative propagation and contaminated harvesting tools. As a binding component of cell walls, calcium decreases the susceptibility of the cell walls to enzymatic pathogenic degradation. Ventilation and fungicides are effective control measures. However, … 12-28C and 12-28D). It is the most important soilborne plant pathogens causing bacterial wilt in over 200 families of plant kingdom, including tomatoes, potatoes, bell pepper, and eggplant, and reduce their productivity and yield (Huang et al., 2013). 12-28). Phialophora wilt, caused by Phialophora cinerescens, is evident as a pale green discoloration of the leaf margins that may subsequently turn red. Although carnations do not typically die from viral infection, reduced flower quality and production can severely affect marketability and profitability. They eventually turn brown and die. The bacteria spread rapidly through the entire plant, and bacteria-laden exudates provide the means of disease transmission to other healthy plants. Keeping the foliage dry, avoiding overhead water, and applying fungicide will inhibit carnation ring spot problems. 4.1). Bacteria overwinter in or on seeds and, in some areas, in plant refuse in the soil. Very small cankers may occur on stems and leaf veins. Watering should be done in the morning to prevent high moisture conditions. Leaf spot / blight : Phyllostricta zingiberi. Carnation ringspot virus (CRSV) shows as irregular yellow or gray spots. Genetic comparison was attempted between these two populations of strains causing bacterial wilt of ginger from these geographically well-isolated locations. The vascular tissue becomes brown. Carnation rust, caused by Uromyces dianthi or Uromyces caryophyllinus, is quite common on carnations. Bacterial wilt is a major problem in the production of ginger and other vegetable crops, owing to the wider host range and genetic variability that it exhibits. Potatoes should be planted in soils that are well drained and aerated as anaerobic conditions in the soil negatively affect tuber resistance to decay (Pérombelon and Lowe, 1975; Bain and Pérombelon, 1988). The above ground shoot is erect and reed-like with linear leaves that are arranged alternately on the stem. Steam pasteurization, clean tools, removal of plant debris, good drainage, low medium temperatures, drenching of newly planted carnations, and regular fungicide sprays on stock plants will reduce the incidence of Fusarium stem rot. Long, narrow, reddish-brown lesions appear on both sides of the leaves, on stems, and on flower buds. The leaves gradually turn yellow and start looking lifeless as if they were melting under intense heat. Bacterial wilt of tomato/eggplant The initial symptom is a wilting of the terminal leaves, which after 2 - 3 days becomes permanent when the whole plant wilts due to the active development of the disease. Some resistant varieties are available and some of them are quite effective in controlling the disease. The biovar III strains were highly aggressive on the ginger plant, causing wilt in 5–7 days of soil inoculation, whereas the biovar IV strains took 3–4 weeks to wilt the ginger plants. Stem cracking may also occur. Vectors, such as the green peach aphid (Myzus persicae) that transmits CRSV and CMV, should be controlled. 117 0 obj<>stream 0 The bacterial wilt diseases caused by members of the Ralstonia solanacearum species complex have never been more important. Botrytis cinererea causes Botrytis flower blight of carnation. The Jamaican ginger, known to be of premium quality on the world market, has been affected by rhizome rot and bacterial wilt diseases. 90 0 obj <> endobj ScienceDirect ® is a registered trademark of Elsevier B.V.

A. Zitter, Cornell University, (C) Plant Pathology Department, University of Florida, and (E) L. McDonald, W.C.P.D. Small tubers disintegrate more readily than large tubers, thus reducing risks for contaminating progeny tubers during harvest. Control other pests that create injuries in ginger plants, such as the lesser corn stalk borer (Elasmopalpus lignosellus). ��*�BJ��@C� However, in places like Hawaii (USA), biovar III is of little significance and biovar IV is responsible for a very rapid spread, leading to wilting of the plant and causing heavy losses to the crop. Low nitrogen content will make the crop susceptible to infection, whereas high nitrogen levels will result in a high nitrate content that promotes multiplication of erwinias (Smid et al., 1993). However, good agronomic practices are recommended to avoid losses because of pectolytic erwinias and scab-inducing streptomycetes. Fungicide drenches are effective, and, as with other pathogens, sanitation and removal of diseased plants are recommended. Soil amendments that increase soil pH should be avoided to control scab. Ten isolates were obtained from wilted ginger plants from the North and the East Sikkim districts of the Eastern Himalayan regions, at an altitude of over 5500 m above mean sea level (msl). The symptoms are raised circular lesions with central depressions surrounded by a yellowish ring. It is extremely difficult to eliminate this pathogen from ground beds as it can survive in the subsoil where steam or fumigants do not penetrate. Ralstonia solanacearum is one of the most important causative agents of bacterial wilt diseases in Solanaceaeus plants. Being a vascular pathogen, it is presumed that the pathogen R. solanacearum can survive in ginger plants at a very low level of inoculum without adversely affecting the normal state of the plant growth. 0000004042 00000 n (F) Tomato fruit showing white and brownish spots in response to infection by this bacterium. 0000000856 00000 n Bronze colouration on leaf margins is also observed and the leaves slowly become flaccid with intense yellowish bronze colour and ultimately droop down exhibiting typical wilt symptoms (Plate 3a). In longitudinal sections of infected stems, vascular tissues show a brown discoloration, while large cavities are present in the pith and in the cortex and extend to the outer surface of the stem, where they form the cankers (Figs. QTLs for this trait were identified on chromosomes 4, 5, and 6 (Brown et al., 2001). R. solanacearum is soil-borne and motile with a polar flagellar tuft. Overhead watering should be avoided and temperatures maintained for optimal carnation, and not Alternaria, development. Soft rot or Paheli : Pythium aphanidrematum.

Two bacteria, Bacillus subtilis K1 and Pseudomonas fluorescence PS12 and the commercially available fungus Trichoderma harzianum AP-001 (TrisanTM) provided the best disease control. xref During harvesting and grading, a high percentage of tubers are damaged or bruised and become particularly susceptible to infection from contaminated equipment (Pérombelon and Kelman, 1980). The fungus causes rot of carnation buds, and mites can be found in decayed tissue. Endophytic bacteria inhibit the pathogenesis of Ralstonia sp., over the Solanaceus plants. BACTERIAL WILT Symptoms: Water-soaked patches or streaks appear on collar region which slowly enlarge. Bacterial wilt or Prem Rog : Ralstonia solanacearum. Carnation mosaic virus (CMV) is characterized by leaf mottle, irregular light green blotches on the leaves, and vein paralleling in the flowers. White Grub or Khumlay : Holotrichia spp. Memoona Ilyas, ... Abdul Mujeeb-Kazi, in Emerging Technologies and Management of Crop Stress Tolerance, Volume 2, 2014. Bacterial wilt caused by R. solancearum (Smith) Yabuuchi is one of the important production constraints in ginger production in India and other parts of the world. Seed rhizomes are to be selected from disease free gardens since the disease is also seed borne. Early symptoms are small purple spots on the lower or upper surface of lower foliage. Bacterial wilt of ginger, referred to as “ginger blast” or “Mahali”/ “green wilt” caused by Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum Safni et al. Rapid wilting of the green Alternaria blight, leaf spot, or branch rot is caused by Alternaria dianthi. The nomenclature of the bacteria in question has changed, and four new types have been identified since 1990. Pseudomonas is one of the major antagonistic endophytic bacteria isolated from eggplants. The leaves on lower parts of plants often have white, blister-like spots in the margins that become brown with age and may coalesce (Fig. Bacterial wilt of ginger is caused by the bacterium R. solanacearum biovar III (Smith) Yabuuchi, which is one of the important rhizome-borne diseases affecting ginger in the field. Carnation streak virus (CSV) symptoms are yellow or reddish spots paralleling the leaf veins. Bacterial wilt is a soil and seed borne disease that occurs during south west monsoon. Large-scale field evaluation and detailed knowledge on antagonistic mechanism have been provided as an effective biocontrol solution for bacterial wilt of solanaceous plants (Ramesh et al., 2009). Biological control of R. solanacearum (a phytopathogen of tomato) using endophytic bacteria is one of the alternative control measures to support the sustainable agriculture. +��(�&���*�nDz*I�ٗ�UI�S>/��Κ�d�� Caused by a bacteria that enters the vascular tissue of ginger plants and multiplies until the shoots and leaves are unable to get enough water and nutrients to survive, bacterial wilt is evident by signs of water stress despite adequate watering and leaves yellowing from bottom to top. Reducing humidity by venting and heating when carnations are beginning to show color will inhibit Botrytis flower blight development. and seed-borne disease. Hayward A. C., Moffett M. L. and Pegg K. G. (1967) Bacterial wilt in ginger in Queensland. Ginger wilt, caused by a bacterium known as Ralstonia solanacearum (Smith) Yabuuchi, is the most limiting factor in the production of culinary gin- ger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) in Hawaii. The four most common carnation viruses are carnation streak virus (CSV), carnation mosaic virus (CMV), carnation mottle virus (CMoV), and carnation ringspot virus (CRSV). Bacterial wilt (Ralstoniasolanacearum) is one of the most commonly known to cause disease in May crops including ginger. Copyright © 2020 Elsevier B.V. or its licensors or contributors. Rainwater and irrigation are also common culprits in the spread of bacterial wilt to other plants. The bacterium Ralstonia solanacearum has been reported to cause bacterial wilt in commercial Eucalyptus plantations. Bacterial wilt of ginger is caused by the bacterium R. solanacearum biovar III (Smith) Yabuuchi, which is one of the important rhizome-borne diseases affecting ginger in the field. 0000001308 00000 n Fungicides can be sprayed before harvest to reduce infection during storage and transport of cut flowers. On cuttings, Fusarium stem rot causes basal stem rot, and reddish lesions are evident at the cutting base. Disease suppression by antagonistic bacteria in certain soils shows promise for Fusarium control in carnations (Garibaldi and Gullino, 1987). The yield may decrease by 10 to 20 percent on an average or over 50 percent in heavily infected plots. Indexing involves subjecting carnations to heat therapy (100°F dry heat for 2 months) to inhibit the movement of viruses to the meristem. It colonises the xylem, causing bacterial wilt in a very wide range of potential host plants. Once the disease is located in the field, removal of affected clumps and drenching the affected and surrounding beds with mancozeb 0.3% checks the spread of the disease. Carnation cultivars that are more resistant to Fusarium tend to accumulate more calcium than more susceptible cultivars. The distortion and the absence of the stickiness of the infected tissue differentiate wilt caused by Fusarium from bacterial wilt. The bacterial wilt is a very destructive disease, which is known to occur in the wet tropics, subtropics and some temperate regions of the world. a�Y��0di ��ˋ8ޗx7+��Y�#��WwJ�,3��2���r�9O �#���o� ����/��b�&�!����� Od�Ά�֪�nLz���](�DSA However, the disease has now been reported in epidemic proportions in DR Congo. As there is a zero tolerance for bacterial ring rot and bacterial wilt (brown rot), seed stocks in which these diseases occur are normally not used for planting. was recorded as the most efficient among the endophytic actinomycetes isolates for the management of bacterial wilt pathogen under in vitro conditions (Sreeja, 2012). Nonparasitic diseases are caused by unfavorable en­ vironmental conditions such as drought, temperatures unfavorable for plant growth, and nutrient deficiencies or ex­ cesses in the soil. It is known as Granville wilt when it occurs in tobacco. 0000011168 00000 n Various control measures has been tried to combat the disease with limited success. It is not unusual for carnations to be infected simultaneously with more than one virus (Lommel et al., 1983). Fusarium bud rot, causal agent Fusarium tricinctum, is transmitted by mites. Bacterial exudation can also be seen from the cut surfaces of the stems. Pest control is important, however, as fungal infections, nematode damage and insect feeding sites allow entry of bacterial pathogens. Bacterium causes rapid wilt in ginger within 5–10 days of the infection. Pseudomonas carophylli and Fusarium oxysporum f. dianthi can survive in the soil for 5 to 10 years. Disinfection of hands and sterilization of tools reduce virus transfer. Wilting of one or a few leaves constitutes the first symptom of this disease, and this and the collapse of vines can often be confused with the effects of other disorders. Symptom: Prabhakaran Nair, in The Agronomy and Economy of Turmeric and Ginger, 2013. Less pervasive, bacterial spot - caused by several species of Xanthomonas - is nevertheless a major disease. Bacterial wilt of ginger is the most se rious rhizome-borne diseases. Pantoea stewartii, is increasing day by day because of favorable weather and resistant hybrids. 0000004077 00000 n Life Cycle of Bacterial Wilt These bacteria cannot live in a dry atmosphere. Bacterial wilt is most common on older plants and is most severe at high temperatures (75° to 95°F). The endophytic actinomycetes isolated from tomato plants collected from five different locations in Kerala (India) was examined for their antagonistic effects against bacterial wilt pathogen in vitro. Transfer of partial resistance is difficult owing to its multigenic inheritance. Endophytic bacteria Pseudomonas isolates (EB9, EB67), Enterobacter isolates (EB44, EB89), and Bacillus isolates (EC4, EC13) were also isolated from eggplant, cucumber, and groundnut from different locations of Goa, India. On stems, shoots, and leaf stalks, light-colored streaks appear, usually at the joints of petioles and stems. Plants are then selected to provide cuttings for increase stock blocks. 12-28F). Hayward A. C. and Pegg K. G. (2013) Bacterial wilt of ginger in Queensland: reappraisal of a disease outbreak. Spread of bacterial contamination within seed stocks often occurs during harvesting and grading of tubers. Bacterial wilt is a serious disease for gingers and can cause a massive loss of ginger yield. michiganense. For the first 10–14 days after harvest, potato storage temperature should be modulated to promote wound healing. However, the wilt will become permanent later on, causing plants to yellow and die. Ginger bacterial wilt is the most destructive disease that causes qualitative and quantitative rhizome yield losses in Ethiopia. This disease was first described in Brazil and later in China, Taiwan, Australia, Venezuela, and South Africa. Cuttings from stock plants maintained with high nitrogen levels are also more susceptible. H�t�Io�0���s$�! In India, biovar III causes rapid wilt in ginger within five to seven days after infection under artificial stem inoculation and seven to ten days under soil inoculation of the pathogen (Kumar and Sarma, 2004). The isolate possesses the potential to be used as a biocontrol agent as well as PGPB. Ralstonia solanacearum is an aerobic non-spore-forming, Gram-negative, plant pathogenic bacterium. Symptoms on individual leaves (A) and on whole plants (B). High humidity causes moisture to collect in the opening flower and provides a favorable environment for the development of the pathogen. However, this bacterium affects a broad host range (over 200 plant species) and, in recent years, a potato strain infecting tomato has been found, a strain for which until now, no source of effective resistance has been found. K. Jacobs, ... J.N. These isolates were phenotypically and genotypically compared with 13 other strains isolated from Kerala and Karnataka, in the southern states of India. Field studies were conducted to determine effect of integrated management … Poor aeration and drainage and overwatering are also conducive to Fusarium infection. Like most cultivated crops, ginger is affected by biotic and abiotic factors in different parts of the world. 0000008905 00000 n Bacterial wilt by Ralstonia solanacearum Smith. endstream endobj 91 0 obj<>/Outlines 11 0 R/Metadata 18 0 R/PieceInfo<>>>/Pages 17 0 R/PageLayout/OneColumn/OCProperties<>/StructTreeRoot 20 0 R/Type/Catalog/Lang(EN-US)/LastModified(D:20101007103327)/PageLabels 15 0 R>> endobj 92 0 obj<>/PageElement<>>>/Name(HeaderFooter)/Type/OCG>> endobj 93 0 obj<>/Font<>/ProcSet[/PDF/Text]/Properties<>/ExtGState<>>>/Type/Page>> endobj 94 0 obj<> endobj 95 0 obj<> endobj 96 0 obj<> endobj 97 0 obj<> endobj 98 0 obj<> endobj 99 0 obj[/ICCBased 114 0 R] endobj 100 0 obj<> endobj 101 0 obj<> endobj 102 0 obj<> endobj 103 0 obj<> endobj 104 0 obj<> endobj 105 0 obj<> endobj 106 0 obj<>stream Tried to combat the disease appears as spots on the stem typically die from viral infection, reduced quality...
