Answer 1

It does appear to be an infection. It will be difficult to say just from these photos, alone, but taking them to your local extension service will help. They can put it under the microscope and stain it to identify it. This will give you the best treatment customization, but many times a broad fungicide will help. Here are some articles that will help you:
