Question: How many disease can a tree can get?

Keywords: ,

  1. I don’t know the exact number, but it would be a lot. There are disease plants can get from bugs and insects, they can even be infected with viruses! One virus is called the tobacco mosaic virus which gives the leaves of tomato and capsicum plants a mosaic or mottled look.

    Some trees can make other plants sick so they can get more of the nutrients and water from the surrounding ground area. For example when pine needles fall to the ground from a pine tree they are toxic to grass and native Australian plants. If you went to a pine forest the ground would be covered in pine needles and nothing else would grow!
