Question: What organism is primarily responsible for causing phyllody disease in sesame plants?

Options:

Bacteria
Fungi
Phytoplasma
Virus

-✅Explanation: Phyllody disease in sesame plants is caused by phytoplasma, a group of bacteria-like organisms that lack a cell wall. Phytoplasmas are transmitted by insect vectors, particularly leafhoppers. The disease causes abnormal growth, leading to the conversion of flowers into leafy structures (phyllody), resulting in poor seed set and yield loss.
