Pythium Diseases (Pythium spp.)
List of files and visuals associated with this text.
This disease complex is found under, cool, moist
conditions and is associated with seedlings and young
plants. Infected plants develop a "wet rot" which results
in pre- and postemergence damping-off (Vis. 1). Cortical
tissues may "slip off" when infected seedlings are pulled
up. Seed treatment fungicides are available for
acceptable prevention.
