Solution

The correct option is A Fungal
The tikka disease is a fungal disease which is mainly caused by fungus Cercospora personata which belongs to class Deuteromycetes. The symptoms include lesions on the leaves. These lesions are found on both the sides of the leaf. Practices like crop rotation can be helpful in preventing the disease. The use of phosphatic and potassic manures reduce the disease. Sulphur dusting is quite effective.
So, the correct answer is option A.
