Diseases of perennial crops such as mango are devastating due to the long time period to maturity for the plants, as a tree grown from seed will not produce fruit until it has reached three to six years of age. In contrast, the mango tree may live and produce fruit for several hundred years if it remains healthy and is well cared for. [10]

Few of the symptoms can be mistakenly confused with insect injury or infection from other disease like mango anthracnose. [3] [4] Confirmation of the presence of mango scab requires microscopic examination of material from fruit, stems or leaves, and culture of the organism. Culture will only be successful from lesions on young plant material.
Mangifera indica, commonly known as mango, is an evergreen [3] species of flowering plant in the family Anacardiaceae. [4] It is a large fruit tree, capable of growing to a height and width of 30 m (100 ft). [5] There are two distinct genetic populations in modern mangoes – the "Indian type" and the "Southeast Asian type". [citation needed]
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 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. These bugs also exude honey dew over the mango tree leaves, on which sooty mold fungus develops reducing the photosynthetic efficiency of the tree.
