When the wet spots appear, the back of the lesions appear purple layer of mycoplasma, and later lesions are connected and the leaves die. Severely reduced production. The source of downy mildew in cucumber and cucumber downy mildew belong to the same kind of pathogen. The pathogenic bacteria overwinter over winter, low temperature and rainy weather, high air humidity, large temperature difference between day and night, flooding in the shed, are conducive to disease. Field cultivation of bacteria spread by wind and rain.
