Survival mechanisms of pathogens
1. Survival by means of specialized resting structures
2. Survival as saprophytes
3. Survival in vital association with living plants
4. Survival in association with nematodes and fungi
5. Survival in association with insects
6. Survival on agricultural materials
7. Survival on surface water

Survival on agricultural materials
• Some pathogens can survive,
• Inside air dried tissues of diseased plants, establishing an epiphytic population
• as dried slime on machinery or containers.
• e.g. :Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis
(causative agent of bacterial wilt and canker of tomato)
• survive in air-dried conditions for 7 to 8 months on the surface of wooden stakes and boxes or wires
• Survive for 15 months in air-dried tissues of diseased tomato plants.

Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. Sepedonicus
(causative agent of potato ring rot)
• survive and remain infectious on potato bags, barn walls, machinery and other equipment.
• Survives inside of an infected tubers

Disease Management
• Using disinfectants ,such as quaternary ammonia, chlorine, iodine or phenol-containing compounds applied to equipment and other contaminated surfaces.
• Removing or isolating diseased crops debris can be helpful to reduce the rate of infection
• Burial of diseased debris is often useful along with crop rotation

Survival in association with insects
• Facilitate transmission from one host to another
• No harm to the insect act as carriers / vectors
• Lives in a symbiotic relationship
Pathogen protection from adverse weather conditions
Insect supply digestive enzymes

Most of the pathogens do not reproduce inside the vector
e.g.
1) Erwinia amylovora honey bee
Fireblight
2) Pectobacterium & Dickeya sp. Fruit flies
soft rot plant tissues

Some pathogens multiply within the host
e.g.
Pathogen vector
1). Xylella fastidiosa
leaf hopper
2). Ca. liberibacter
psyllid

• Multiply in the gut & the salivary glands.

Disease management by controlling theinsect/vectors
Chemical control
• insecticides
• horticultural oils e.g. stylet oil
• insect repellents
Resistant crop varieties
• Resistance that prevents feeding or repels the insects can prevent transmission of pathogens spread by feeding
cultural control
• elimination of weed hosts of vectors
• Adjusting planting dates can minimize crop exposure to vectored pathogens

Survival of plant pathogens on surface water
• Till contact the specific host • Inoculum-Individual itself • Stage of life cycle (E.g.: Vegetative body, Dormant
mycelium, Asexual Spores, Sexual spores ) capable of causing disease
• Vectors
Bacteria1. Erwinia carotovora2. Xanthomonas campestris

Management Of Pathogens
Using Resistant crop varieties Treatment of waste water Treat the water - slow sand filtration ,
using Heat, ultraviolet light, ozone, and chlorination
Improve water drainage Using other varieties of crops Chemotherapy( E.g. fungicides)
