  • Coconut Bud Rot (140)
    Pacific Pests, Pathogens and Weeds - Online edition Coconut bud rot (140) Common Name Coconut bud rot Scientific Name Phytophthora palmivora. Note, there may be more than one species of Phytophthora in the Pacific islands causing bud rot. For instance, Phytophthora hevae is also said to occur, causing a bud and nut rot of coconuts in New Caledonia (Photos 2&3). Distribution The disease is reported wherever coconuts are grown. It is recorded on coconut from Cook Islands, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Tonga, and Vanuatu. The report from Tonga needs confirmation. Hosts Photo 1. Bud rot of coconut showing the collapse of the spear and younger leaves due Bud rot occurs on coconut and other palms (e.g., betel nut, oil palm), to infection by Phytophthora palmivora, while the older leaves appear relatively healthy at this but Phytophthora palmivora infects many other crops (e.g., cocoa and papaya), as well as weeds, time. in Pacific island countries. Symptoms & Life Cycle By the time symptoms appear, the disease is advanced with rotting of the bud and inner leaves (Photo 1). The first sign is a wilt or a bending of the spear leaf; sometimes the spear leaf becomes light green, but not always. The outer leaves then start to yellow from the top of the fronds downwards, and then turn brown. Yellow to light brown, sunken patches occur on the leaf stalks. As the disease progresses, the central leaves fall out as they become completely rotten at the base of the leaf stalks, leaving only a few outer leaves, which remain green for a while.

  • Effect of Nutrition and Soil Function on Pathogens of Tropical Tree Crops
    10 Effect of Nutrition and Soil Function on Pathogens of Tropical Tree Crops Peter McMahon Department of Botany, La Trobe University, Bundoora Vic Australia 1. Introduction Crops grown in the tropics are subject to different kinds of disease pressure from those produced in temperate regions. The greater biodiversity found in the tropics, including diversity of fungi, is reflected by the larger number of pathogen species in tropical regions (see Ploetz, 2007; Wellman, 1968, 1972). Perennial crops, and tropical perennials in particular, have features in common that may predispose them to pathogen infections. Pathogen inocula, such as microsclerotia, may build up from year to year in perennial crops (Pennypacker, 1989). Also, tropical conditions are usually suitable for the year-round survival and propagation of pathogen species, unlike temperate climates which have a cooler season when pathogen populations die off or are reduced. Tropical perennial crops often include susceptible genotypes on the farm and the presence of susceptible host material encourages the production of inoculum and the initiation of new infections (Ploetz, 2007). Ploetz (2007) remarks that the presence of susceptible hosts is a particularly important barrier to disease control in tropical perennials. Diseases in the tropics may be complicated by interactions between different pathogens, or between pathogens and insect pests (Holliday, 1980; Ploetz, 2006; Vandermeer et al., 2010; Anonymous, 2010). Disease complexes involving a number of fungal pathogens or fungi and nematodes are common in tropical situations. Interactions between pathogens and environmental stress may also occur. Crops can become more susceptible to pathogen infections when weakened by environmental stress such as drought, temperature extremes, and exposure to sunlight or wind (Agrios, 2005).

  • Bud Rot and Other Major Diseases of Coconut, a Potential Threat to Oil Palm
    1 Bud rot and other major diseases of coconut, a potential threat to oil palm Dollet Michel1, Hubert de Franqueville2 Michel Ducamp1 1CIRAD, TA A-98/F, Campus International de Baillarguet, 34398 Montpellier Cedex 5 2PalmElit - Parc Agropolis Bat.14 - 2214 Bd de la Lironde, 34980 Montferrier sur Lez INTRODUCTION Since the last quarter of the 20th century, it has had to be accepted that any pathogen can move from one continent to another, in a very short time, and affect any place on the planet. The best-known examples are animal and/or human pathogens. Reference will briefly be made to them as they are very concrete examples of the current epidemic context. However, this also applies for the spread of plant diseases that we have been witness to in the last thirty years. Not only do pathogens travel over long distances, they also “jump hosts”, be it in the Animal Kingdom or the Plant Kingdom. Climate changes may be conducive to such events. Using these data, we shall attempt to examine the possible risks of seeing pathogens of the coconut palm, Cocos nucifera, or even of other plants, attacking the oil palm, Elaeis guineensis. DISPERSAL/PROPAGATION OF ANIMAL AND HUMAN PATHOGENS Sars The first example involves SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) which was identified in humans in China at the end of 2002. At the beginning of 2003, a hotel in Hong Kong very close to the original focus was the starting point for an epidemic that affected Vietnam, Singapore and even Toronto in Canada within a few weeks.

  • Leaf Spot Disease of Coconut Seedling and Its Eco-Friendly Management
    J. Bangladesh Agril. Univ. 11(2): 199–208, 2013 ISSN 1810-3030 Leaf spot disease of coconut seedling and its eco-friendly management M. A. H. Khan1* and I. Hossain2 1Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Joydebpur, Gazipur and 2Department of Plant Pathology, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh-2202, Bangladesh, *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The effect of weather on prevalence of seedling diseases of coconut during 2010-11 and 2011-12 in different areas of Bangladesh was studied to develop an environment friendly disease management practice. Pestalotia palmarum was isolated and identified from leaf having spot. Incidence and severity of grey leaf spot at seedling stage were determined and significant variations were observed depending on weather factors as well as locations. Occurrence of seedling disease was significantly influenced by temperature, rainfall and relative humidity. Comparative effectiveness of BAU-Biofungicide either alone or in combination with two fungicides viz. Bavistin or Dithane M-45 was evaluated on coconut seedling in the nursery. Among the treatments applied, Trichoderma harzianum based BAU-Biofungicide either alone or in combination with Bavistin (0.2%) as an excellent biocontrol means in controlling leaf spot disease of coconut. Keywords: Coconut seedling, Leaf spot disease, BAU-Biofungicide, Eco-friendly management Introduction Coconut (Coccos nucifera ) is one of the most important fruits in Bangladesh. It provides coconut oil, coconut milk as well as mineral enriched water that widely used in the country. Coconut contributes a great share of the total production of fruits in the country. About 80% of families in the country consume less than the minimum recommended daily requirement of fruits.

Lemons are highly susceptible compared to grapefruit, rough lemons and sweet orange. In South India, it is common in the sweet orange. Symptoms ¾ Disease starts as water soaked large patches on the basal portions of the stem near the ground level ¾ First symptoms are dark staining of bark which progresses into the wood. ¾ Bark in such parts dries, shrinks and cracks and shreds in lengthwise vertical strips. ¾ Bark at the base is destroyed resulting in girdling and finally death of the tree. ¾ Later profuse exudation of gum from the bark of the trunk occurs. There may be a considerable amount of gum formation in sweet oranges, but relatively little in grapefruit. ¾ Infection extends to crown roots. ¾ Prior to death, the plant usually blossoms heavily and dies before the fruits mature. Favourable conditions Prolonged contact of trunk with water as in flood irrigation; water logged areas and heavy soils predispose the disease.

Traditionally cultivated for fiber, fiber crops have also become sources of other materials such as food, animal feed, cosmetics and medicine. Asia and America are the two main production areas of fiber crops in the world. However, oomycete diseases have become an important factor limiting their yield and quality, causing devastating consequences for the production of fiber crops in many regions. To effectively control oomycete pathogens and reduce their negative impacts on these crops, it is very important to have fast and accurate detection systems, especially in the early stages of infection. With the rapid development of molecular biology, the diagnosis of plant pathogens has progressed from relying on traditional morphological features to the increasing use of molecular methods. The objective of this paper was to review the current status of research on molecular diagnosis of oomycete pathogens on fiber crops.
