Fusarium Foot Rot

Fusarium foot rot symptoms are similar to those of Buckeye root rot, and first appear on mature plants as interveinal chlorosis and necrosis of the leaves. In severe cases, leaves turn brown and collapse, and the entire plant may die. Reddish dark brown lesions form on the taproot and main lateral roots up to 30 cm (12 in.) below the soil-line. Internal vascular discoloration may extend 2-10 cm (1-4 in.) beyond the lesions.
