QUI EN EST LA CAUSE ?
The sooty mold pathogen is a saprophytic fungus that develops on the sugary secretions produced by some insects, such as the cottony mealybug, on plants and trees. Although sooty mold itself does not cause direct damage to plants, it can cover large areas of the leaf surface, affecting the ability of photosynthesis and making it difficult for plants to breathe.

SYMPTÔMES
In citrus fruits, the presence of sooty mold can cause a series of problems. Symptoms include the formation of a black, powdery coating on the surface of leaves, stems and fruits, which reduces product quality and makes marketing difficult. Additionally, sooty mold can interfere with photosynthesis by blocking sunlight and causing cosmetic damage to crops.
TEMPÉRATURE ET HUMIDITÉ
20°C - 30°C
80% - 95%
VOIES DE TRANSMISSION
Direct contact with sugary secretions produced by insects, the movement of insect vectors between plants, and the wind dispersal of fungal spores.

Recommandations
To prevent and control sooty mold in citrus crops, it is important to maintain good pest management, controlling the population of insects such as the cottony mealybug that excrete the honeydew on which the fungus grows. In addition, regular removal of honeydew with pressurized water and the use of specific fungicides can help reduce the incidence of sooty mold in crops.

RECOMMANDATIONS
- Check the back of the leaves frequently, especially in dry weather.
- Spray water on the leaves to increase humidity and prevent them from settling.
- Keep plants healthy with good watering and adequate light.
- If you see cobwebs or damage, clean the leaves with a damp cloth or pressurized water.
- Use potassium soap or neem oil every few days until they disappear.
