Rhizoctinia Solani is a soil-borne fungus that attacks plant roots and can cause significant crop damage. Synonyms for this fungus include Rhizoctonia root rot, black scurf, and bare patch disease. It is commonly found in fields with heavy soil and high moisture levels, making it a threat to many crops, including potatoes, sugar beets, and soybeans. Symptoms of infection include yellowing leaves, stunted growth, and wilting of the plants. Effective control measures include crop rotation, seed treatments, and fungicides. Early detection and prevention are key to preventing the spread of Rhizoctinia Solani and protecting crop yields.
