rotten white radish!

At first glance, these pictures may only seem to be an artist's work. However, this is something you must avoid when seen on radish!
Various diseases occurring in radishes can cause the vegetable to rot, which is what happened to this plant here.

Here, I thought pathogens invaded the white radish and caused areas to create irregular black blotches. After researching, the best assumption I could make is blight because this occurs in radishes by turning the roots black, also known as black root rot. This is also dangerous to have when farming radishes because, as of now, they are said to be incurable! Hopefully, a solution will be made in the future for this disease due to the threat it places on radishes if even one plant becomes infected.
