Moringa flowers Moringa pollen Tree and seed pods of Moringa oleifera Moringa seeds Foliage of Moringa oleifera. M. oleifera is a fast-growing, deciduous tree [7] that can reach a height of 10–12 m (33–39 ft) and trunk diameter of 46 cm (18 in). [8] The bark has a whitish-gray color and is surrounded by thick cork.
Moringa contains three widely recognized clades—Donaldsonia, Moringa, and Dysmoringa. [15] Donaldsonia, once thought to be a subgenus of Moringa, is a non-monophyletic clade identifiable by radially symmetric flowers and containing the bottle trees M. drouhardii, M. hildebrandtii, M. ovalifolia, and M. stenopetala.

Moringa stenopetala, commonly known as the African Moringa or cabbage tree, is a deciduous tree in the plant genus Moringa, native to Kenya and Ethiopia. [3] A drought-resistant species, it is characterized by its bottle-shaped trunk, long twisted seed pods, and edible leaves likened to cabbage, from which its common name is derived.

The host-specific characteristic of many leaf spot pathogens makes diversity in plant species a way to reduce and regulate leaf spot pathogen infection levels within plant populations. [ 18 ] Prevention of leaf spot disease includes variety selection, crop rotations, plant hygiene and fungicide use for seeds and foliage. [ 19 ]

Alternaria alternata is a fungus causing leaf spots, rots, and blights on many plant parts, and other diseases. It is an opportunistic [ citation needed ] pathogen on over 380 host species of plant. It can also cause upper respiratory tract infections [ 1 ] and asthma in humans with compromised immunity.
Plant diseases are diseases in plants caused by pathogens (infectious organisms) and environmental conditions (physiological factors). [1] Organisms that cause infectious disease include fungi , oomycetes , bacteria , viruses , viroids , virus -like organisms, phytoplasmas , protozoa , nematodes and parasitic plants . [ 2 ]
