symptoms of the Apple scab disease
Some symptoms of Apple scab disease include:
1. Dark, scabby lesions on the leaves, fruit, and twigs of the apple tree.
2. Leaf curling and distortion.
3. Premature leaf drop.
4. Reduced fruit yield and quality.
5. Cracked or deformed fruit.
6. Cankers on the branches or trunk of the tree.
7. The appearance of velvety olive-green to black fungal spores on infected plant parts, especially in wet and humid conditions.
If left untreated, Apple scab disease can weaken the tree, make it more susceptible to other diseases, and reduce its overall productivity. Regular monitoring and proper management practices, such as pruning and applying fungicides, can help prevent and control the spread of this disease.
