The disease spot is grayish brown to reddish brown, sometimes brittle, the edge is dark, slightly raised, and there are many small black spots scattered in the later stage, and the back color of the disease spot is lighter. Route of transmission: the pathogen overwintered in diseased leaves and fallen leaves by hyphae or conidia, and the conidia were transmitted by wind and rain. The optimum temperature for the development of bacteria was about 27 ℃. Pot place humid and muggy, poor ventilation, or plant growth weakness will aggravate the disease.
