Pathogens Associated with Common Plant Diseases

This chart shows disease names and associated pathogens of some common plant diseases. Clickable links to online references are provided in the last column, which verify the disease-pathogen association. The "PMID" numbers in the third column are the access numbers of research articles available at PubMed from the National Library of Medicine/National Institute of Health. You can click on the linked numbers to read the abstracts of the articles, or you can manually enter the number into the search box here.

Some references are in pdf format. If you are not able to open them, and need to download the free Adobe Reader software, go here.
