Air borne diseases. These crop diseases are transmitted by the air, e.g., 'rust of wheat' , "blast of rice" , etc. Air-borne diseases attack all aerial parts of the plants, e.g., leaf, flower, and fruits. Water borne diseases. Pathogens of these crop diseases are transmitted by the water, e.g., "bacterial blight of rice".

What is a water borne disease?

Nah, they aint the same. water related diseases could mean 'water-borne diseases' and/or 'water-based diseases' at the same time.Water-borne diseases refers to the diseases that are transmitted by water.E.g.: typhoid fever. i.e. without water, it is impossible for the pathogen responsible for the disease to spread and be transmitted. It may not necessarily be water based.Water-based diseases; E.g: Schistosomiasis. refers to the diseases that contain and/or are dissolved in water within their life-cycle. they don't need water to be transmitted.Waterborne pathogens are transmitted by the fecal-oral route and water-based pathogens spend all or parts of their life in the water.Source: Environmentally Transmitted Pathogens;Charles P.
