Symptoms |
Leaf spots are brown in color, circular and enlarge to about the size of a nickel. Concentric rings can be seen within the spots and these may coalese forming irregular areas on the foliage. Disease severity is positively correlated with cloudy, wet weather. The disease occurs primarily on mature leaves often beginning on the lower leaves and progressing to other leaves higher up on the stalk. |

Symptoms |
This fungal disease appears first on the older leaves as circular, brown spots (1/4 to 1 1/4 inches in diameter) with sharply defined margins. Concentric circles (rings) are often noticeable within the spots. As the leaves approach maturity, a yellowish "halo" of varying width often forms around the lesion. Lesions may merge, forming large areas of dead tissue. During humid weather, sporulation of the fungus may be abundant, giving the lesions a black, dusty appearance. Brown spot is most severe as the plant approaches maturity, and the disease progresses from the lower to the upper leaves. Disease severity depends much on the weather, the overall health of the plant, varietal tolerance, and harvest rate. |

Symptoms |
Symptoms of the brown spot fungus first appear on the lower leaves. Spots are brown with sharply defined margins and may be surrounded by yellow halos. The primary distinguishing characteristics of brown spot are the dark concentric rings within spots that give it a target-like appearance. With magnification, reproductive structures of the casual agent are seen as tufts of black fungal spores (conidia). Under severe conditions, spots are numerous, may coalesce, and give the leaf a ragged appearance as the infected tissue falls out. |
