Plant Diseases: Identifying Disease 🌱 GCSE Biology Learning & Revision

In this episode, we discuss how to identify plant diseases.

Identifying plant diseases is crucial for maintaining plant health. The signs of disease include stunted growth, spots, decay, unusual growths, malformed parts and discolouration, as well as the presence of pests. 

Correct identification can be achieved through several avenues. Gardeners can consult gardening manuals or websites for possible diagnoses. 

For definitive identification, laboratory analysis is an option. Alternatively, testing kits with monoclonal antibodies offer another method of diagnosis.
