Histopathological Observations in Guava Root during Wilting caused byFusariumSpecies: A Scanning Electron Microscopy Study

Abstract: Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium solani are the two most destructive pathogens causing wilt disease in guava (Psidium guajava L.) commonly known as 'super fruits'. These pathogens attack mainly on the root region of the plant and cause severe infection. In the present investigation the infection process was studied with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and it was observed that the root region of the guava plant showed disintegration and necrosis in the epidermal layer, cortex tissue, and in vascular bundles, … Show more

“…Guava trees (Pisidium guajava L.,) suffer from several serious and destructive diseases at all stages of its life. Several fungi attack guava causing seedling root rots (Baiuomy et al 2003), anthracnose (Dharam and Gaur, 1973), black spot (Mishra and Sitansu, Pan, 2007), stem canker (Cardoso et al 2002, Kamhawy, 2011, stem-end rot (Mishra and Sitansu, Pan, 2007), die-back (Bokhari et al 2008, Safdar, Asma et al 2015 and wilt diseases (Pandit and Samajpati, 2002;Samajpati, 2005, Dwivedi, Neetu andDwivedi, 2016).…”
