Red rot
Sugarcane

Symptoms

  • Diagnostic symptoms can best be observed by splitting the stalk lengthwise.
  • The infected tissues have a dull red color interrupted by occasional whitish patches across the stalk.
  • These white patches are specific to the disease and are of significance in distinguishing red rot from other stalk rots.

Preventive Measures

Use resistant or moderately resistant varieties. Any sett showing reddening at the cut ends or at the nodal region should be discarded.
