International, Wallingford, UK, pp 267-324. they form bands of dead areas several centimetres wide, on either side of the midrib, and the leaves collapse and die. The leaf, symptoms appear mild by comparison with the huge losses in tuber production: a dry brownish rot. The virus is widely distributed throughout East and West Africa since it was first reported in Kenya in the mid-1960s. Intercrops of cassava, millet and sorghum are possibilities. Spots develop quickly under moist conditions and produce a large number of spores on, both sides of the leaves. Ekesi, S., Maniania, N.K., Onu, I. and B. Lohr. In southern Africa, halo blight is found in Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Although there is limited data on yield losses there can be little doubt that virus infections, particularly those associated, sized plants will inevitably affect pod and bean production, particularly when at least one of these two major viruses, CABMV has been studied more than BlCMV and has been recorded in 16 sub-Saharan countries in Africa, including.

Chemical control targets breeding colonies of quelea, a strategy known as ‘search and destroy’. Rats dig through the mounds or ridges to eat tubers, or attack them when they are. Destroy crop residues after harvest to reduce populations and limit the pest the following season. While the bean bruchid is primarily known as a storage pest of grain legumes, it. : Planting setts should be dusted with ash, or captan fungicide if this is affordable and available. The brown streaks are difficult to see and occur infrequently. Invariably. Seedlings are killed and so are older plants up to the time of tillering. The blackening is so uniform and sudden on. Pepper extracts are also effective in controlling and reducing the populations of the bean flower thrips. Grey leaf spot was first thought to be caused by the fungus, in the USA, and occurs elsewhere, and Group II occurs mostly in USA and Africa. effective for cleaning infected planting material.

Cowpeas can be attacked by the legume pod borer from early budding through to harvest. virus. Infected seeds are sources of the fungus and responsible for long-, distance spread. If the spots surround the stems, the seedlings die. 2. The older larvae bore into the stems of the sorghum, weakening them and causing, chaffy heads. Impact depends on when the eight or nine leaves above the ear become infected, and the, amount of disease that develops on them, as these determine 70-90% of the yield: the earlier the infection sets in, the, greater the yield loss. The spots grow up to 5 mm in diameter, are often surrounded by yellow halos. 21-24 October 2013, Y, flowers, killing plants up to tillering, or reducing grain yield and quality on plants that reach maturity, In Africa it is a problem of upland rice in particular, dark borders occur on the leaves and rots develop on stems and flower heads. The discoloured areas in a leaf mosaic disease, have a clearly defined boundary corresponding to leaf veins and differ from mottling, caused by different viruses on, cowpea, where similar areas are not defined by veins. These diseases differ in the patterns of yellow and green on the leaves, but all cause. CMD affects tuber production but not the tubers internal appearance. Anthracnose fungi are invariably associated with wet, The spots are tan to brown, sunken and, on susceptible varieties, they circle the stems, branches, leaf and flower. Even in irrigated lowland rice, most varieties are not able to withstand, flooding for more than a week, and floodwater spreads the bacterial leaf blight between plants. The sweet potato weevil is one of the most important pests of sweet potatoes. Pale green to yellow halos develop around the dying (necrotic) areas but note the rapidity with which plants are, killed. particularly vulnerable to this disease as they are long-season types, giving the fungus more time to damage them. out on some of the seed first, and always use a thermometer to measure temperature. perhaps the most damaging crop pest in Africa. An integrated pest management approach incorporating a number of cultural techniques is also recommended. : Downy mildew of pearl millet is caused by an oomycete or water mould, . The caterpillars bore into the stem of maize, feed on the internal tissues and, cause the plant to wither and die. Red LED: indicates the unit is activated.

If less than 30% infection, remove only part of the leaf; if more than 40% remove the entire leaf. Infection by sweet potato chlorotic stunt virus (SPCSV) can result in a mild yellowing or reddening of older leaves and, stunting, as its name suggests. In development, there are four active instars including a six-legged larva, two nymphal stages (proto- and deuto-, nymphs) and the adult stage. lower leaf surface; not usually surrounded by yellow halo. during that time. Planting in widely spaced rows that run parallel to the prevailing wind enables the leaves and pods to dry as quickly as, During the growth of the crop, apply a mulch to prevent soil from splashing onto the plants during heavy rains. In an effort to reduce pesticide use, ICRISAT has been trying out integrated disease management practices based on, tolerant varieties, seed dressings (using thiram plus bavistin at 2.5g per kg seed) and a single spray of chlorothalonil, types of spore, some of which occur on different host plants. Monitoring should be done one or two days per week, once the sorghum flowers bloom. plastic sealable bags, drums, or clay pots. Where the disease is absent (e.g. The pest can be spread through infested plant propagation materials. The pupae are about 5-6 mm long and initially creamy white.

Remove and destroy crop debris and volunteer plants immediately after harvest. the most damage to the plant by boring into the base of the pseudostem, rhizome (or corm), suckers and roots. Moisture is essential for spore development, spread and germination, as well as for infection. Halo blight can spread rapidly in a crop, and cause big losses. Molecular analyses of the four phytoplasmas that cause disease in cassava have shown that they belong to different, taxonomic groups and, therefore, are the cause of different diseases. We make products designed for every corner of your home, specializing in humane, environment-friendly, and ultrasonic pest control products. Management is by using nematode-free setts (achieved by carefully inspecting, planting material or treating with hot water to kill the nematodes), by reducing soil populations, using legume fallows or rotating yams with crops resistant to attack, and by removal of crop, The nematode causing dry rot of yam has a wide host range, infesting all edible and wild yam species, and many. In hot, dry conditions the bacterium dies rapidly, the stem (stubble) and root remains after harvest – about a month under dryland conditions and perhaps half as long when, submerged. Small green to yellow slightly raised spots on leaf surface, more on top side. Plants and fruits are destroyed. Localized infections from wind-borne conidia are less damaging. The threat and risk from the disease is highest in damp. It has been recorded from, Egypt, south through Sudan and Ethiopia to Kenya, T. Africa. Infected, leaves usually fall off. corms. Phytoplathogenic Mollicutes 3(2): 77-81. Journal of Biotechnology 2(12):497-502. Control is by using, tolerant or resistant varieties, dividing nitrogen fertilizer into several splits, avoiding water-stressed, plants, eliminating crop residues, and application of seed treatments if fungicides are affordable, Oval or diamond-shaped spots (5-15 mm long and 3-5 mm wide) with dark borders occur on the leaves. After harvest, collect, vines and burn, bury or compost them. Phytoplasmas often cause diseases of economic importance.
