What is another word for potato wart?
Pronunciation: [pətˈe͡ɪtə͡ʊ wˈɔːt] (IPA) 
Potato wart, also known as potato canker or potato black wart, is a serious plant disease that affects potatoes. It is caused by a fungus called Synchytrium endobioticum. While there are no synonyms for the disease itself, there are terms related to its symptoms or effects on the plant. These include potato blight, a destructive disease caused by another fungus, Phytophthora infestans; potato scab, a bacterial disease that causes scabby growths on the skin of the potato; and potato rot, which is another result of a fungal infestation and causes the breakdown and decay of the tuber. These various diseases can have a devastating impact on potato crops, leading to significant losses for farmers and increased prices for consumers.
