Once a plant is infected, the bacteria spread through the xylem vessels from the area of infection to the main stem, and the entire plant wilts and dies. Initial symptoms may include the wilting of single leaves and smaller stems. Infected plants may produce a creamy white bacterial ooze when cut.
For best results, repot your plants in spring and choose a well-draining pot that’s just one or two sizes larger than the pot your plant is growing in. If the peace lily’s roots are tangled in ...

Halo blight causes small water-soaked spots on leaves. These spot progressively turn dark brown and are surrounded by a wide greenish yellow halo. The necrotic spots remain small unlike that of common blight. [4] Similar to foliage symptoms, halo blights causes water-soaked spots on vegetative pods. It also causes streaks along pod sutures.
An albino corn plant with no chlorophyll (left) beside a normal plant (right) In botany, chlorosis is a condition in which leaves produce insufficient chlorophyll.As chlorophyll is responsible for the green color of leaves, chlorotic leaves are pale, yellow, or yellow-white.
The spots, which may be as much as 12 mm across, are generally circular and have an irregular edge often with a yellow halo. Leaves frequently turn yellow and fall early. Sometimes new leaves are produced, and these may also become affected. Continual defoliation will cause weakness, dieback or death of the plant. Some very susceptible species ...
Upon favorable moist and warm conditions, conidia (the primary inoculum) are released from lesions of an infected corn plant and carried to nearby plants via wind or splashing rain. Once conidia have landed on the leaf or sheath of a healthy plant, Bipolaris maydis will germinate on the tissue by way of polar germ tubes.
