‘Bacterial wilt’ is a bacterial infection of plants that causes yellowing and wilting in plants.
Causative Agent
Caused by a form of bacteria called Erwinia tracheiphila, bacterial wilt can have devastating effects on the vascular tissues of growing plants and cause fast wilting.
Control of Disease (Conventional Farming)
You should consider spraying plants with foliar insecticides to eliminate bacterial wilt. Depending on the extent of infestation, spraying should be done three times in 15 days gapping for an effective result.
