Protection of ornamental pot crops from rots and wilting
Saintpaulia (African violet) is susceptible to a dangerous Phytophthora rot of stems and petioles, caused by the pathogen Phytophthora nicotianae var. parasitica. The disease manifests as tissue hardening, browning, and blackening; on leaves, it spreads in waves, quickly leading to the death of the entire plant. The main source of infection is usually the compost. To protect plants, use only clean, healthy compost and carry out timely fungicide applications (see page 353).
Powdery mildew (causative agent Oidium sp.) on Saintpaulia usually begins on flower sepals and rarely harms the leaves. Start treatments at the first symptoms of the disease — this will help reduce the amount of fungicide residues on the plants. The bacterium Corynebacterium fascians causes fasciation in Saintpaulia, but it usually does not cause serious harm. Much more dangerous is black leaf rot, caused by the bacterium Pseudomonas marginalis, which leads to mass plant death.
Yellow ring spot and leaf striping in Saintpaulia often resemble viral damage, but are actually caused by low temperatures and irrigation with cold water.
Upon the appearance of black leaf rot, it is necessary to completely replace or disinfect the substrate, as well as thoroughly disinfect propagation areas. On mature Saintpaulia leaves, a grey central spot may develop, causing the tip of the leaf blade to curl. The fungus Rhizopus stolonifer is found on diseased tissues, but its role as a primary pathogen has not yet been confirmed. Soft bacterial rot of stems and leaves (causative agent Erwinia carotovora var. carotovora) usually affects plants already weakened by the fungus Pythium splendens. Protective measures aimed at Pythium splendens are also effective against bacterial rot (see page 353).
Schizanthus is often affected by root and stem rots caused by pathogens Phytophthora sp., Pythium sp., and Rhizoctonia solani. The greatest danger is posed by Phytophthora foot and root rot. Among non-infectious pathologies of the crop, leaf tissue overgrowth, stunted growth, and chlorosis due to over-wetting of the compost stand out, as well as flower drop in the absence of pollination, which is the main problem during cultivation.
Sonerila suffers from foot and root rot caused by the fungus Rhizoctonia sp. The disease can be recognized by stunting, retarded growth, premature aging, and wilting of leaves. Streptocarpus is also sensitive to foot rot, the causative agent of which is the fungus Rhizoctonia solani.
The causative agent of sclerotial rot of Syngonium, Sclerotium rolfsii, is subject to strict quarantine in countries where it rarely occurs (for example, in the UK). The disease is extremely dangerous for many crops and manifests as brown sclerotia the size of a radish seed on rotting stems and leaves.
Tradescantia is highly resistant and is rarely affected under extensive cultivation. Nevertheless, it can develop stem rot (causative agent Rhizoctonia solani) and root rot (causative agent Botrytis cinerea). For the Zantedeschia crop, specific diseases and control measures are not provided in the current section.

- Main problem of Schizanthus — lack of pollination
This crop is grown for cut flowers and for planting in open soil. One of the most harmful diseases is bacterial root rot (causative agent Erwinia carotovora var. carotovora). Soft, wet rot develops on the roots of affected plants, and the leaves wilt. The only way to control the rot is to select young, healthy cuttings and propagate them in a disinfected substrate. Similar symptoms are produced by the fungus, applied during irrigation (see page 353). Moderate signs of mottling appear on the leaves as a result of infection with tomato spotted wilt virus tomato. Mosaic-affected plants must be destroyed. ZYGOCACTUS When affected by the fungus Fusarium oxysporum, stem rot appears, and the plant dies. The pathogen can live in the soil. The best way to control the disease is using healthy propagation material, disinfecting the compost, and in case of severe infection, irrigating with benzimidazole solutions. In addition, Pythium rots of the roots and root collar have been detected on Zygocactus. FURTHER READING Anon. (1969) Pot Plants. Bulletin 112. HMSO, London. Forsberg, J. L.

Pathogens of decorative and greenhouse crops
In greenhouse cultivation, decorative crops often grow alongside transplant and vegetable plants, creating risks for rapid spread of mixed infections. Pathogens easily move from wild species or vegetables to houseplants, entering through stomata (section 50) or being transported by insects such as aphids—virus vectors (sections 23, 25). To protect plantings, it is important for an agronomist to monitor the phytosanitary status of all crops in the operation, taking into account the specifics of fungal mycelium development, rhizomorphs (section 18), sclerotial mass (section 249), and bacterial pathogens, including rickettsia (section 21). At the same time, it is necessary to control the dynamics of infection spread both on a crop-wide scale (section 41) and directly on individual plants (sections 46, 52, 54).

Many viral infections affect a wide range of hosts, which is why ornamental species can become infected from accompanying vegetable or weed crops. For example, cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) harms not only vegetables but also freesias, causing spotting on the flowers and leaf deformation. Tobacco necrosis, dandelion yellow mosaic, and arabis mosaic exhibit a similar cross-infectivity pattern, capable of spreading to indoor flowers. Aster yellows (mycoplasma), sugar beet western yellows, lettuce necrotic yellows, and pseudo-yellows also pose a particular danger.
Non-pathogenic disorders can seriously impair the commercial quality of ornamental plants. Toxicity for sensitive greenhouse crops is caused by herbicide residues (sections 36, 38, 237), excess ammonium and nitrate ions (section 33), as well as toxic levels of boron (section 47), manganese (sections 33, 47, 192), and fluorine (section 47).
Integrated protection system: disinfection, agronomic practices, and fungicides
Reliable disease prevention in greenhouses begins with substrate preparation and the maintenance of an optimal microclimate. Thermal methods are used to eliminate pathogens in peat, peat bags (sections 88, 102, 105), and reusable containers. Steaming is carried out via drains (section 94), under plastic film (section 93), or superficially (section 92), by treating the soil (section 77), seeds (sections 76, 77), and seedling boxes and pots (section 171). Alternatively, soil sterilants (section 96) and chemical disinfection with formaldehyde or formalin (sections 97, 100, 110) are used, performing fumigation with pure product, sulfur (section 110), or a mixture of formaldehyde with potassium permanganate (section 111).
- Clear greenhouses of plant debris and eliminate waste piles near the greenhouses (sections 65, 67, 112).
- Perform thermal treatment of the substrate (section 77) or steaming (sections 92, 93, 94).
- Disinfect seeds to prevent the transmission of pathogens (sections 74, 76, 176) and maintain their biological functions (section 59) by means of seed treatment (sections 76, 159, 177).
- Perform sterilization of seedling boxes, pots (section 171), and disinfection of structures.
When growing roses, freesias, and other flowers, it is critically important to control the physiological parameters of the environment that influence photosynthesis (section 58) and the accumulation of carbohydrates. The agronomist must prevent condensation from forming on leaves by monitoring the dew point (section 107) and regulating the irrigation regime (section 108), especially when using nutrient film technique (NFT) (section 103). The concentration of soluble salts in the substrate (sections 32, 49) directly affects plant susceptibility to diseases (section 33) and the speed of their spread (sections 42, 43), as do the pathways of infection spread via irrigation water (sections 69, 71). It is also important to monitor the accumulation of protective substances, such as phenols (section 38), which increase natural immunity.

A wide arsenal of chemical agents is used to suppress fungal infections. Triadimefon, tri-minol, triforine, saprol, and fenpropimorph (section 129), as well as folpet and phaltan (section 130), are effective against rust and powdery mildew. Grey mold is controlled using procymidone, sumisclex, fubo, rhizo-lex (section 129), fungex and filex (section 130), as well as by fumigation with the product ronilan (sections 325, 329). For root rots and late blight, systemic active ingredients are used: propamocarb hydrochloride, prothiocarb (section 130), and fosetyl-aluminum (sections 117, 130). For foliar spraying and substrate irrigation (sections 100, 121, 124, 125), prochloraz, prochloraz-manganese, thiophanate-methyl, tecnazene, and fungaflor (sections 117, 129) are also applied.
When drawing up spraying schedules (section 131) and integrated pest management (IPM) programs (section 133), remember the rapid development of resistance by pathogens to benomyl (section 133) and other active ingredients. Regularly rotate systemic and contact fungicides with different modes of action (sections 120, 121, 131, 132), using tank mixtures and modern fine-dispersed products through foggers or ULV (section 124).
