| AG-MI-5898 - Ash Yellows in Minnesota
Ash yellows is a plant disease induced by a mycoplasmalike organism (MLO). It has all the traits of animal and human mycoplasmas except that it cannot be grown on artificial media. Consequently, testing for the presence of this organism is considerably more sophisticated and costly than most disease cultures. |

AG-FS-1167-A - Damping-off of Seedlings
Damping-off generally refers to sudden plant death in the seedling stage due to the attack of fungi (see figure 1). These fungi are soilborne and are stimulated to grow and infect the seed or seedling by nutrients released from a germinating seed. However, seedlings may be injured or killed by something other than fungi, for example, toxic materials in the soil, excess or deficient soil moisture, seed defects, temperature extremes, toxic gases in the air, etc. A correct diagnosis is the key to effective control measures. |
