That is quite a strange pattern. I have seen insect damage that will do that, but never that perfectly. I would still say insect damage, though I also notice the tips are a bit burned.

I am concerned of infection. Insects can bring this about, as can overly wet soils.

From here, I would recommend using insecticides on occasion, and using fungicides to control the infection taking over.

Here are some articles that will help:
