Microbial Diseases affecting Henequen (Agave fourcroydes Lem.) in Yucatan, Mexico

The pattern of diseases produced by phytopathogens in some areas of cultivation are changing drastically due, among other causes, to new market trends that induce changes in the agricultural practices, and the introduction of new crops. Monitoring these changes is important in order to take appropri...
