 * In the introductory paragraph, provide more information such as which nursery plants are commonly infected or what regions of the world the pathogen is found in. The information does come up in later sections but mentioning it in the introduction would be helpful for people who stop by the page and skim the first paragraph to see if they'll be able to find what they're looking for.
 * Link to relevant wiki pages. Some useful topics to link would be "pathogen," "irrigation," and the specific species that are mentioned if Wikipedia pages exist for them. This would be especially helpful in the Disease Cycle section where many of the terms used might be unfamiliar.
 * The Natural/Additional Hosts section could probably be organized into a table.
 * The Disease Management section reads like a literature review which might be okay, but it doesn't match the writing of the rest of the page. Instead, you could state the results as facts and cite the sources. If there have been other studies done that agree or disagree with the results you should note these as well. If not, there may not yet be enough information on the subject to include it in the Wiki page.
 * Overall readability is very clear. I think you could even make it more technical if necessary, as long as you hyperlink the terms that are needed for understanding. The writing style itself is easy enough to follow.

Peer Edits from Sandi

 * Very well-organized article. You did a really good job of creating new sections where necessary and it was easy to read all of the information you presented without getting lost.
 * You seem to have a lot of citations for Hong (2008 and 2010). Is this the main researcher in the field? If you are able to find others, it might be good to vary your sources.
 * Is there a Wikipedia article on 'shoot tip blight' that you could hyperlink to? That as a term that I wasn't familiar with when first reading the article.
 * The first sentence in your 'Environment' section about the pathogen being found in water, rivers, and streams seemed very repetitive with a sentence that you had earlier in the article.
 * If there's any information out there, I would be interested to learn more about whether this is a big concern of farmers and if it leads to big declines in crop yields. Once you have your disease management section filled out more, I think that it'll lead to some interesting stuff.
 * Is this disease typically lethal for the plants that contract it?
 * Is the phrase 'A1 mating type' typically used in plant biology? Is there another page you could link to or better explain what it means? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Symbiodinium (talk • contribs) 20:58, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
