Pests, Diseases & DisordersWhat does a polycyclic disease epidemic mean for mango monitoring?
A polycyclic epidemic includes repeated infection cycles within the crop cycle, with new infections providing material for further spread. A monocyclic epidemic has one infection cycle in that frame of reference. Understand the particular disease and production cycle before applying either label. Repeated cycles explain why an early, limited outbreak can deserve attention before most mango tissue appears affected.
