| Botryosphaeria dothidea is a fungal infection causes blotchy red/brown spots on the stems of Dragon Fruit. The spots are typically flat but slightly raised compared to adjacent normal areas. The infection can result in multiple irregular spots that may coalesce together. The disease may first present as yellow areas on a branch that then develop into darker spots. |
