What is wrong with my loquat seedlings?

Leaves on my seedlings are crunchy and have black spots - not sure what could be causing this.

Wow, that looks awful. I have many adult loquat trees and seedlings, never seen anything like that.
Looks like it's hopeless, get another one that is healthy.

I'm currently grafting some Vista White scion on the seedlings for a request from one forum member (I have many seedlings). So if you want to purchase one, send me a PM. I can graft one for you and ship it after it takes.

Cost will be $20 plus shipping.

Looks like fireblight, there are many treatments, it's primarily spread by landscape trees like evergreen pear.  It's a common issue in most plants of roseaceae. Quince are much worse.
