Phoma blight Phoma glomerata. Phyllosticta leaf spot Phyllosticta mortonii Phyllosticta citricarpa Guignardia citricarpa [teleomorph] Phyllosticta anacardiacearum
Elsinoë mangiferae produces symptoms superficially similar to anthracnose infections, which are also common on mango. The disease initially presents as small dark brown or gray spots on the underside of leaves or fruit. These spots enlarge and darken over time, developing a velvety or cracked texture in the center of the lesion. [2]
Fusarium mangiferae is one of the causal agents of malformation disease that affects mango (Mangifera indica, L.) growing regions and is economically important. [3] [4] [5] It causes mango malformation disease (MMD) and induces vegetative development abnormalities in shoots that leads to misshaped buds, short internodes, dwarf and narrow leaves.

The mango mealybug (Drosicha mangiferae) is a pest of mango crops in Asia. The nymphs and females suck plant sap from inflorescences, tender leaves, shoots and fruit peduncles. [ 2 ] As a result, the infested inflorescences dry up, affects the fruit set, causing fruit drop.
Nutrient and water uptake is interrupted and this will cause the decline of the tree. [8] The visible symptoms can include leaf chlorosis, leaf tip burn, and excess fruit drop. The latter is the most noticeable symptom of infected trees. Levels of 6 nematodes per 1 cubic centimeter is considered detrimental to the tree. [9]
Peziotrichum corticola is an ascomycete fungus that is a plant pathogen. [2] It was first discovered in India by Massee. [3] Rhinocladium corticola is a known synonym. [4]P. corticola causes black-band disease on the leaves and bark of mango trees. [5]
