Q

Symptoms of damping off?

A

Seeds turn soft and mushy, no germination. Roots develop lesions, water soaked spots, and darkening. Stems develop necrotic spots, water soaking, and degradation. Older ants lose vigor. Produce water rot.

Q

Disease cycle of damping off?

A

Resting oospore - germinates around 68f producing sporangium - zoospores release - infect host - produce enzymes that cause tissue death - produce zoosporangia to produce zoospores and/or have sex to produce oospores
