Abstract

Excerpts from the report: Head lettuce is subject to many market disorders, some of which are easily confused because their symptoms closely resemble each other. This confusion presents difficulties at market inspections, when accurate identification is needed to help avoid or settle disputes. This publication is designed primarily to aid in the identification of various disorders of lettuce, with precise descriptions and illustrations of each. Diseases caused by fungi and most bacteria are not included, with the exception of bacterial soft rot. The early symptoms of bacterial soft rot are included because they resemble those of russet spotting.
