  1. Seeing brown, rotting stems on your beans, peas, or tomatoes? It could be foot rot. Act fast:
    * Pull & burn affected plants
    * Rotate crops over a 3-5 year cycle
    * Use sterilised compost & pots for seedlings
    * Ensure plants aren't stressed.
    Prevention is key! #GardeningTips #PlantDisease

  2. Does anyone know if there is a plant disease that's harming chickpeas? I make my own hummus and found about 30 like these in a 1 pound bag.

    "inoculation with defined bacterial communities as probiotics is an attractive strategy for safeguarding #PlantHealth. However, to ensure that these inocula are effective, it is necessary to understand how #bacteria and #plants interact under different conditions."

  8. Does anyone know what #PlantDisease is attacking my tomatoes?

    The leaves are developing yellow blotches that start to crisp at the edges. Some of them have a lesion in the middle. And a very few have some dark spots. See pics.

  11. Understanding how the “heart” of the plant works may lead to protecting plants from pathogens

    Researchers have discovered the secrets behind how plants move sugar using a protein called the SUC transporter. This breakthrough solves a long-standing mystery of the plant ‘heart’ and sheds new light on how plants defend themselves from pests.

  12. I'll be bummed if I lose this Octopus #Agave. What in the world is going on?? This doesn't look like the other agaves that were killed by agave weevils.

  13. I believe most who have visited Africa might have seen this. Crown gall is a bacterial disease of the stems and roots of many woody and herbaceous plants, including fruit, vegetables and ornamental plants. Infection with this disease causes knobbly swellings (galls) on stems, roots, trunks and branches.
    Crown gall is caused by the bacterial plant pathogen, Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
