There is not any treatment which can cure phytophthora infection, nor there is any way one can stop the spreading of infection once it has infested the area. One can only prevent it from spreading to uninfected areas by taking specific care. To manage phytophthora three risk zones have been identified,…

All types of corn must be grown in the same soil and nutrient conditions, watering amounts and light conditions. They must be grown in separated plant chambers, and the seeds will be planted in three pots and each grow chamber will be labeled. The amount of ECB that is added to the plantation must always be in the same quantity corresponding to the level of infestation. Also the amount of seeds must always be the same in every experiment.…

Typically, Diplodia blight starts out affecting the tips of the lower branches of the tree, and eventually spreads to the top. Infected new shoots, which are the most vulnerable, turn brown, stop growing and die off. Older shoots can become infected too if damaged.…
gallisepticum infection is caused by an organism classified as a mycoplasma. This organism is similar to bacteria, but lacks a cell wall. This characteristic makes MG extremely fragile. They are easily killed by disinfectants, heat, sunlight, and other factors. They only remain viable in the environment outside the chicken for typically up to 3 days. For this reason, MG is fairly easy to eliminate on single-age and all-in all-out poultry farms. "If a laying flock is infected, complete depopulation of the farm at the end of the laying cycle and providing down-time prior to reintroducing chickens will be successful in eliminating MG. However, complete depopulation must be performed to break the cycle and prevent re-infection in subsequent flocks on the…

Histoplasmosis is caused by the fungus Histoplasma, which lives throughout the world but is most common in North America and Central America. Histoplasma grows best in soil that contains bird or bat droppings. However, birds cannot spread the fungus in their droppings but bats can. People most often receive the disease causing illness after breathing in microscopic fungal spores that come from disturbed soil. The most common symptoms a person would get are coughing, fever, and fatigue and they usually appear within three and seventeen days. Other symptoms a person may experience are chills, headache chest pains, and body aches and these will most commonly last for a couple of weeks to a month unless they become severe. In severe cases of Histoplasmosis the disease can develop into a long term lung infection and even possibly spread to areas of the body like the spinal cord or the brain. Almost every healthcare provider can order a test for histoplasmosis. For a doctor to diagnosis histoplasmosis the best they need a urine sample or a blood sample, they also need to know physical examinations, symptoms, and your medical and travel history. The treatment is fairly simple with a non-severe case and you should see a decline of your symptoms in a few weeks. In severe cases a doctor will prescribe an antifungal medication like Itraconazole, and can say you need the treatment for up to 3 months to a year. Histoplasmosis is most common among adults aged sixty-five years or older or people who have HIV/AIDS and a weakened immune system. Although, approximately sixty percent to ninety percent in the Midwest/South have been exposed to Histoplasmosis. The most recent outbreak of Histoplasmosis was in an east-central Illinois prison throughout the months of august through September in the year 2013. They are still finding cases so the investigation is still open, but they are currently at 78 cases. The breakout was causes by the pathogen Histoplasma capsulatum…
The key features of the disease in the scenario are as follows. The symptoms have been noted to consist of chills, fever, headaches, myalgia or muscle aches and stiffness (Khayznikov et al., 2015), vomiting, bleeding from the nose, mouth and gastrointestinal tract, disorientation, and photophobia or sensitivity to light (Digre and Brennan, 2013). The incubation period was most likely a few days to a week, as individuals developed symptoms after returning from the forest. This disease occurred in South Asia, and had a seasonal pattern to outbreaks. As seen in Figure 1, the highest number of cases was in February and decreased as the months went on. The number of cases was the lowest in January, with June also being low for the amount of cases…
