Introduction to Plant
Diseases
Plant diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens,
including fungi, bacteria, viruses, and nematodes. These
diseases can lead to reduced crop yields, lower quality
produce, and even plant death. Early detection and
diagnosis are crucial for effective disease management and
safeguarding agricultural productivity.
The Impact of Plant
Diseases
Devastating crop losses: Plant diseases can destroy up to 40%
of global food production, threatening food security and
livelihoods.
Economic burden: Managing and mitigating plant diseases costs
the agricultural industry billions of dollars annually in treatment,
prevention, and lost revenue.
