Pests, Diseases & DisordersCan a clear photograph of a mango lesion identify the bacterium or fungus responsible?
A clear image can establish the lesion's pattern and help a specialist choose the next examination, but it may not identify the organism responsible. Different causes can produce similar dark marks, and secondary organisms can occupy damaged tissue. Ask whether the proposed identification is visual, provisional, or supported by examination of a sample. Keep that level of confidence with the diagnosis, especially before making an expensive management change based on a species name.
