Cassava
''Manihot esculenta'', common name, commonly called cassava (), manioc, or yuca (among numerous regional names), is a woody shrub of the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae, native to South America. Although a perennial plant, cassava is extensively cultivated as an annual agriculture, crop in tropical and subtropical regions for its edible starchy tuberous root, a major source of carbohydrates. Though it is often called ''yuca'' in parts of Spanish America and in the United States, it is not related to yucca, a shrub in the family Asparagaceae. Cassava is predominantly consumed in boiled form, but substantial quantities are used to extract cassava starch, called tapioca, which is used for food, animal feed, and industrial purposes. The Brazilian farinha, and the related ''garri'' of West Africa, is an edible coarse flour obtained by grating cassava roots, pressing moisture off the obtained grated pulp, and finally drying it (and roasting both in the case of farinha and garri). Cassav ...

Phytophthora Erythroseptica
''Phytophthora erythroseptica''—also known as pink rot along with several other species of ''Phytophthora''—is a plant pathogen. It infects potatoes (''Solanum tuberosum'') causing their tubers to turn pink and damages leaves. It also infects tulips (''Tulipa'') damaging their leaves and shoots. Several species from the genus ''Phytophthora'' are believed to be involved in causing pink rot-like diseases. Disease cycle As ''Phytophthora erythroseptica'' is an oomycete, its disease cycle follows that of similar ''Phytophthora'' species. Oospores, sporangia, and zoospores can infect any part of the potato plant that is below ground. Oospores serve as the primary form of inoculum, and can survive in the soil as long as seven yearsWarton, Phillip., Kirk, William. Potato Diseases: Pink Rot (E2993). 31 January 2017. Michigan State University Extension http://msue.anr.msu.edu/resources/potato_diseases_pink_rot_e2993 Oospores produced in the field can overwinter and when thaw ...

Phytophthora Cryptogea
''Phytophthora cryptogea'' is a species of Oomycete, water mould in the family Pythiaceae. It is a plant pathology, plant pathogen that infects several species of cultivated plants, including over 40 species of cultivated flowers.Olson, H. A., et al. (2011)Phylogenetic history of ''Phytophthora cryptogea'' and ''P. drechsleri'' isolates from floriculture crops in North Carolina greenhouses.''Phytopathology'' 101(11) 1373-84. It was first described as the cause of tomato foot rot in tomatoes Host Range and Symptoms This species is reported to be pathogenic on Petunia × atkinsiana, grandiflora petunia (''Petunia'' × ''atkinsiana''). It causes root rot, shoot rot and shanking in tulips. It also infects blue daze (''Evolvulus glomeratus''), dusty miller (''Jacobaea maritima''), Barberton daisy (''Gerbera jamesonii''), and garden verbena (Verbena × hybrida, ''Verbena'' × ''hybrida''). Like its relative ''Phytophtora cambivora'', it can cause ink disease of Castanea sativa, chestn ...

Verticillium Dahliae
''Verticillium dahliae'' is a fungal plant pathogen. It causes verticillium wilt in many plant species, causing leaves to curl and discolor. It may cause death in some plants. Over 400 plant species are affected by ''Verticillium'' complex. Management ''Verticillium dahliae'' has a wide host range and can persist as microsclerotia in the soil for years, so management via fallowing or crop rotation generally has little success. The exception to this is rotation using broccoli, which has been shown to decrease ''Verticillium'' severity and incidence in cauliflower fields. This is likely due to the production of allyl isothiocyanate in broccoli, which can suppress the growth of plant pathogenic fungi. Seed choice may reduce disease presence. Purchasing seed stock from certified ''Verticillium''-free growers and utilizing resistant or partially resistant cultivars can decrease disease incidence. Even resistant cultivars may show symptoms if the field has a high concentration of ...

Sphaceloma Manihoticola
''Sphaceloma'' is a genus of ascomycete fungi. Its species are plant pathogens Plant pathology (also phytopathology) is the scientific study of diseases in plants caused by pathogens (infectious organisms) and environmental conditions (physiological factors). Organisms that cause infectious disease include fungi, oomyc ..., and cause anthracnose and scab diseases. The widespread genus is estimated to contain 52 species.

Sclerotium Rolfsii
''Athelia rolfsii'' is a corticioid fungus in the family Atheliaceae. It is a facultative plant pathogen and is the causal agent of "southern blight" disease in crops. Taxonomy The species was first described in 1911 by Italian mycologist Pier Andrea Saccardo, based on specimens sent to him by Peter Henry Rolfs who considered the unnamed fungus to be the cause of tomato blight in Florida. The specimens sent to Saccardo were sterile, consisting of hyphae and sclerotia. He placed the species in the old form genus ''Sclerotium'', naming it ''Sclerotium rolfsii''. It is, however, not a species of ''Sclerotium'' in the strict sense. In 1932, Mario Curzi discovered that the teleomorph (spore-bearing state) was a corticioid fungus and accordingly placed the species in the form genus '' Corticium''. With a move to a more natural classification of fungi, ''Corticium rolfsii'' was transferred to '' Athelia'' in 1978. Description The fungus produces effused basidiocarps (fruit bodies) th ...
