Ergot Disorder in Plants

S. Sreeremya

Abstract


Arid land or region is a terrain where there is so little rainfall plants and animals either don't exist or are very sparse and impeded in the growth. Deserts are arid, but other terrain with very little moisture are also. Semiarid region are dry regions with very little vegetation. Millet are majorly grown in semi-arid region it’s a main habitat for Claviceps fusiformis thereby causing Ergot disease.
