Some Common Diseases of Papaya in Florida
نویسنده
چکیده
Papaya ringspot, caused by papaya ringspot virus, is the most important disease of the crop in Florida, severely limiting the potential for commercial production. Sometimes this virus infects cucurbits. Earliest symptoms in papaya appear as yellowing and vein-clearing of younger leaves. A prominent yellow mottling of the leaves follows. One or more lobes of infected leaves may become severely distorted and narrow (Fig. 1). Dark green streaks may develop on the petioles and stems.
