This document discusses three diseases that affect cotton - Fusarium wilt, anthracnose, and bacterial blight. It provides details on the symptoms, causal pathogens, disease cycles and management strategies for each disease. Fusarium wilt causes wilting and death of seedlings. Anthracnose causes spotting of bolls and stems. Bacterial blight causes leaf spots and blackening of veins and stems. The pathogens are soil-borne fungi and bacteria and infect via seed or plant debris. Management involves seed treatment, crop rotation and fungicide/antibiotic sprays.
It contains basic details about the etiology, symptoms, disease cycle and management practices for the control of disease : Wilt in Chickpea, Lentil and Arhar(Pigeon pea).

Diseases of rose:
Crown Gall Rot,
Black Spot,
Powdery mildew of Rose,
Rust and Anthracnose.
Besides rose diseases, environmental factors can effect your plants too, and they should be watched for an remedied when found. To keep most rose diseases under control, a commercial fungicide will take care of it. In other cases, proper pruning techniques and the maintenance of clean garden implements goes a long way in preventing such conditions from occurring in the first place.
I have found that only two sprays are needed to keep your plants healthy. The first is sulpher. This will work for most of the diseases. But not for black-spot: for this you need Capstan.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
3. Initial symptoms on young seedlings are
yellowing and browning of cotyledons, followed
by brown ring on the petiole.
Finally wilting & drying of the seedling occurs.
Symptom at later stages includes loss of
turgidity, yellowing, drooping and wilting
starting from older leaves.
Browning or blackening of vascular tissues
occur on the stem and spreads upwards and
downwards.
Infected plants appear stunted with fewer
bolls.
Symptom
8. Etiology of the Pathogen
•The hyphae are both inter and intra-cellular.
•The conidiophores are verticillately branched and develop
in sporodochia or sometimes directly on mycelium.
•Macroconidia are multicellular, light buff in mass, fusiform-
falcate, and curved inward at both ends, hyaline, 1 to 5
septate.
•Microconidia are 1-celled (6-10 x 2-3µm) or rarely 1-
septate (13-20 x 3-5µm), elliptical and scattered all over the
mycelium.
•Chlamydospores are mostly globular, dark coloured and
thick walled, terminal or intercalary and 7-13µm in
diameter.
•The fungus also produces a vivotoxin, Fusaric acid which is
partially responsible for wilting of the plants.
9. Favourable Conditions
•Soil temperature of 20-30˚C.
•Hot and dry periods followed by rains.
•Heavy black soils with an alkaline
reaction.
•Increased doses of nitrogen and
phosphatic fertilizers.
10. Disease cycle
The fungus can survive in soil as saprophyte for
many years and chlamydospores act as resting
spores.
The primary infection is mainly from dormant
hyphae and chlamydospores in the soil.
The secondary spread is through conidia and
chlamydospores which are disseminated by wind
and irrigation water.
11. Management
• Treat the acid delinted seeds with Carboxin or
Carbendazim at 4 g/kg.
• Remove and burn the infected plant debris in the
soil after deep summer ploughing during June-July.
• Apply increased doses of potash with a balanced
dose of nitrogenous and phosphatic fertilizers.
• Apply heavy doses of farm yard manure or other
organic manures. Follow mixed cropping with non-
host plants.
• Grow disease resistant varieties of G.
hirsutum and G. barbadense like Varalakshmi, Vijay
Pratap, Jayadhar and Verum.
• Spot drench with Carbendazim 1g/litre.
13. The pathogen infects the seedlings and
produces small reddish circular spots on the
cotyledons and primary leaves.
The lesions develop on the collar region,
stem may be girdled, causing seedling to wilt
and die.
In mature plants, the fungus attacks the
stem, leading to stem splitting and shredding
of bark.
Symptoms
14. The most common symptom is boll spotting.
Small water soaked, circular, reddish brown
depressed spots appear on the bolls.
The lint is stained to yellow or brown,
becomes a solid brittle mass of fibres.
The infected bolls cease to grow and burst
and dry up prematurely.
15. A. Star-shaped foliar necrosis;
B-C. Death of apical meristems;
D. Over sprouting of lateral buds (witches' brooms)
18. Pathogen
The pathogen forms large number
of acervuli on the infected parts.
The conidiophores are slightly curved, short,
and club shaped.
The conidia are hyaline and falcate, borne
single on the conidiophores.
Numerous black coloured and thick walled
setae are also produced in acervulus.
19. Acervulus and Conidia
The fungus only reproduces asexually by forming
conidia.
The conidia develop on conidiophore, and both these
structures form the fruiting body of the fungus called
acervulus.
Acervuli are saucer-shaped, flat and black velvety
structures.
In each acervulus, alongwith condidia and
conidiophores, are present many long, branched and
septate bristles called setae.
Conidiophores are aseptate and cut many unicellular,
falcate, hyaline conidia which on germination form the
new mycelium.
20. A.Acervulus;
B. Setae;
C. Conidia;
D. Germinating conidia;
E. Appressoria.
Colonies grayish, cottony
with pinkish orange
acervuli. Hyphae brown,
partly superficial, septate.
acervuli are 100 to 153 µm
in diameter. Setae olive or
dark brown,
22. Disease Cycle
The pathogen survives as dormant mycelium
in the seed or as conidia on the Surface of
seeds for about a year.
The pathogen also perpetuates on the rotten
bolls and other plant debris in the soil.
The secondary spread is by air-borne conidia.
The pathogen also survives in the weed hosts
viz., Aristolachia bractiata and Hibiscus
diversifolius.
23. Management
• Treat the delinted seeds with Carbendazim or
Carboxin or Thiram or Captan at 2g/kg.
• Remove and burn the infected plant debris and
bolls in the soil.
• Rogue out the weed hosts.
• Spray the crop at boll formation stage with
Mancozeb 2.0 kg or Copper oxychloride 2.5 kg or
Carbendazim 500g/ha.
25. Symptoms of the disease
The bacterium attacks all stages from
seed to harvest.
Usually five common phases of
symptoms are noticed.
26. (i) Seedling blight
Small, water-soaked, circular or
irregular lesions develop on the
cotyledons, later, the infection spreads
to stem through petiole and cause
withering and death of seedlings.
27. (ii) Angular leaf spot
Small, dark green, water soaked areas
develop on lower surface of leaves,
enlarge gradually and become angular
when restricted by veins and veinlets
and spots are visible on both the
surface of leaves. As the lesions become
older, they turn to reddish brown colour
and infection spreads to veins and
veinlets.
28. (iii) Vein blight or vein necrosis or black vein
The infection of veins cause blackening of
the veins and veinlets, gives a typical
‘blighting’ appearance. On the lower
surface of the leaf, bacterial oozes are
formed as crusts or scales. The affected
leaves become crinkled and twisted
inward and show withering. The infection
also spreads from veins to petiole and
cause blighting leading to defoliation.
29. (iv) Black arm or Bacterial blight
On the stem and fruiting branches, dark
brown to black lesions are formed,
which may girdle the stem and branches
to cause premature drooping off of the
leaves, cracking of stem and gummosis,
resulting in breaking of the stem and
hang typically as dry black twig to give a
characteristic “black arm” symptom.
30. (v) Square rot / Boll rot
On the bolls, water soaked lesions appear
and turn into dark black and sunken irregular
spots. The infection slowly spreads to entire
boll and shedding occurs. The infection on
mature bolls lead to premature bursting. The
bacterium spreads inside the boll and lint
gets stained yellow because of bacterial ooze
and looses its appearance and market value.
The pathogen also infects the seed and
causes reduction in size and viability of the
seeds.
35. About bacterium pathogen
The bacterium is a short, motile rod-
shaped with a single polar flagellum.
It is Gram negative, non-spore forming
bacterium and measures 1.0-1.2 X 0.7-
0.9 µm.
36. Favorable Conditions
• Optimum soil temperature of 28˚C,
• High atmospheric temperature of 30-40˚C,
• Relative humidity of 85 per cent, early sowing,
• Delayed thinning,
• Poor tillage, late irrigation and
• Potassium deficiency in soil.
• Rain followed by bright sunshine during the
months of October and November are highly
favorable.
37. Disease Cycle
The bacterium survives on infected, dried plant
debris in soil for several years.
The bacterium is also seed-borne and remains in
the form of slimy mass on the fuzz of seed coat.
The bacterium also attacks other hosts
like Jatropha curcus.
The primary infection starts mainly from the seed-
borne bacterium.
The secondary spread of the bacteria may be
through wind, wind blown rain splash, irrigation
water, insects and other implements.
38. Management
• Delint the cotton seeds with concentrated
sulphuric acid at 100ml/kg of seed.
• Treat the delinted seeds with carboxin or
oxycarboxin at 2 g/kg or soak the seeds in
1000 ppm Streptomycin sulphate overnight.
• Remove and destory the infected plant
debris. Rogue out the volunteer cotton
plants and weed hosts.
39. • Follow crop rotation with non-host crops.
• Early thinning and early earthing up with
potash.
• Spray with Streptomycin sulphate +
Tetracycline mixture 100g along with Copper
oxychloride at 1.25 Kg/ha.
