Descrição da doença
Saissetia oleae, commonly known as the sooty mealybug, is a species of scale insect that affects olive trees. These insects feed on plant sap, causing weakening and stress to the trees. Additionally, they produce a sticky substance called honeydew, which serves as a growth medium for the sooty mold fungus. Sooty mealybug reproduction can be sexual or asexual, and females can lay up to 500 eggs in a single season.

Descrição do patógeno
The disease that occurs in olive trees is characterized by the presence of honeydew on the branches and leaves, which gives rise to the formation of a layer of black fungus known as sooty mold. This affects the plant's photosynthesis, as the sooty layer blocks sunlight.
• Presence of honeydew on branches and leaves.
• Formation of a layer of soot on the molasses.
• Loss of vigor in the plant.
• Decrease in the quality and quantity of the olive harvest.
• Branches and leaves weakened and yellowed.
