Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
What effect do pathogens have on plants?
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. Knowledge of plant diseases is restricted to tobacco mosaic virus as a viral disease, black spot as a fungal disease and aphids as insects.
  2. The pathogens that cause malaria are protists.
  3. Rose black spot is a fungal disease where purple or black spots develop on leaves, which often turn yellow and drop early. It affects the growth of the plant as photosynthesis is reduced.
  4. Rose black spot is spread in the environment by water or wind.
  5. Rose black spot can be treated by using fungicides and/or removing and destroying the affected leaves.
  6. The malarial protist has a life cycle that includes the mosquito. Malaria causes recurrent episodes of fever and can be fatal.
  7. The spread of malaria is controlled by preventing the vectors, mosquitos, from breeding and by using mosquito nets to avoid being bitten.
Think about how you can match the needs of ALL students
Keywords:
  • Protists: A type of pathogen (1)
  • Vector: Something that carry's disease (1)
  • Aphids: Aphids are small sap-sucking insects (1)
  • Black Spot Disease: the most serious disease of roses. It is caused by a fungus (1)
  • Mosaic Virus: viruses that cause the leaves to have a speckled appearance (1)

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. What are three examples of plant diseases you need to know?
    The three plant diseases you need to know are 1. mosaic virus as a viral disease 2. black spot as a fungal disease 3. aphids as insects
  2. What are the pathogens that cause malaria called?
    The pathogens that cause malaria are protists.
  3. What is rose black spot and how does it affect the growth of a plant?
    Rose black spot is a fungal disease where purple or black spots develop on leaves, which often turn yellow and drop early. It affects the growth of the plant as photosynthesis is reduced.
  4. How is rose black spot spread in the environment?
    Rose black spot is spread in the environment by water or wind.
  5. How can rose black spot be treated?
    Rose black spot can be treated by using fungicides and/or removing and destroying the affected leaves.
  6. What vector is used to spread malaria and what are the symptoms of it?
    The malarial protist has a life cycle that includes the mosquito. Malaria causes recurrent episodes of fever and can be fatal.
  7. How is the spread of malaria controlled?
    The spread of malaria is controlled by preventing the vectors, mosquitos, from breeding and by using mosquito nets to avoid being bitten.
