First of all it is necessary to determine what the words 'rot' and 'mold' actually mean. Mold can be described as a discoloration caused by various fungi in any atmosphere on the surface of food and thus contributes to its disintegration.

To rot is a condition in plants, fruits and vegetables caused by bacteria and fungi leading to the decay of the object.


These explanations suggests that rot and mold are one and the same thing. The synonym of 'rot' is 'mold' and vice

versa.


Visually, rotting may be detected first of all followed by mold which is not always visible to the naked eye until the mold colonies grow, but nevertheless is still present
