what happens when fungus affects wheat, rice and sugarcane
Answers
Answer:
When the fungus affects wheat, some small insects gets on them and when fungus affects rice, some white powder appear at the top of the river
When fungus affects wheat :
Infections can lead up to 20% yield loss, which is exacerbated by dying leaves, which fertilize the fungus. The pathogen is a Puccinia rust fungus. It is the most prevalent of all the wheat rust diseases, occurring in most wheat-growing regions.
When fungus affects rice :
The fungus causes seedling blight, necrotic spots on leaves and seeds, and also grain discoloration. Infection of this disease results in reduction in number of grains per panicle and kernel weight. Severely infected seeds may fail to germinate. Seedling blight is common on rice in both rainfed lowlands and uplands.
When fungus affects sugarcane :
With the disappearance of the cane sugar there is a simultaneous increase of glucose. This is attributed to the inverting action of the fungus, and by proper flask experiments it was shown that the fungus has the power of inverting cane sugar. All parts of the cane are attacked by the fungus.
