Invading bacteria quickly spread throughout the plant (Figure 5). Source: IITA. Trop. Under severe conditions, the foliage may exhibit black to brown leaf lesions. Common houseplant pests like mealybugs, aphids, scales blackened the plant stems. Cultivars for potted plant production have been derived from crosses of A. andraeanum with dwarf species, such as A. amnicola and A. antioquiense. Generally, andreanum are susceptible to this disease, while andrecola, which are andreanum amnicola hybrids are resistant to it. Neal, M. C. 1965.
