    “Corynespora cassiicola causes target leaf spot across many tropical crops including sweet potato; entity types, direction, and affected part are coherent.”

  • plant-pathologist · plausible

    “Sweet potato is within C. cassiicola's documented host range for target leaf spot; pathogen role, fungal classification, and leaf affected part align.”
