Plant diseases are processes that occur in a plant under the influence of various causes, from pathogens to adverse environmental conditions.

    What Are Common Plant Diseases?

    The most common plant diseases can be safely attributed, first of all, to diseases such as:

    • rust;
    • ascochitosis;
    • septoria;
    • mosaic;
    • bacteriosis;
    • rot;
    • fungi;
    • powdery mildew;
    • mold;
    • leaf curl.

    Also, many others are not listed above but can be found on our customizable lists.

    Diseases Identification by Plant Type

    Numerous plant diseases exist, mainly distributed among such plants as peas, potatoes, buckwheat, grasses, hemp, corn, flax, alfalfa, sunflower, rice, soybeans, tobacco, shag, sainfoin, and many others. Plant disease identification effectively addresses the negative factor that impedes the plant’s growth. All plants found in home gardens or urban areas can be attacked by fungi, emphasizing that fungi can be seen as parasites that provoke fungal diseases in plants.

    Tree Disease

    The strong framework of the trunk and branches determines the tree's vitality and, of course, its harvest. The trunk and branches contain a complex of tissues that provide strength and growth in length and thickness, transport water and minerals along with the products of photosynthesis, and store nutrients. If the skeleton is affected, the tree has no chance of yielding. In this case, the gardener decides whether to uproot the sick plants or leave.

    Flower Disease

    The main reason for flower diseases is the violation of conditions of maintenance.

    Tomato Disease

    Many tomato diseases are listed above, as they are very common.

    Crop Disease

    Viral diseases cause the greatest damage to cereal crops.

    Houseplant Diseases

    Diseases of indoor plants require immediate treatment, as the disease spreads quickly in a limited space. 

    How to Identify Plant Diseases?

    The symptoms of plant diseases are countless, but the most frequent of them can be singled out:

    • leaf fall;
    • brown leaf tips;
    • spots on leaves;
    • wilting of leaves;
    • soft stem or leaves.

    In the cases of fungi and other diseases, it is necessary to be aware of the different types of fungi on plants and to prevent and heal them along with rot, rust, etc.
