Researchers in Kashmir identified two fungal species, Fusarium incarnatum and Fusarium avenaceum, causing wilt disease in important vegetable crops like tomatoes, brinjals, and chili peppers. These pathogens cause yellowing of leaves, wilting, and death of plants, resulting in significant crop losses. This is the first time these particular fungi have been confirmed as wilt pathogens in these vegetables in India. The study emphasizes the need for better management strategies to protect these crops from fungal infections.
