Factors Affecting the Dynamics of Frosty Pod Rot in the Main Cocoa Areas of Santander State, Colombia [PDF]

Plant Disease, 2019
Frosty pod rot (FPR) caused by Moniliophthora roreri is the primary disease affecting cacao production in the major producing countries of the Americas and is one of the major threats to cacao worldwide. The incidence of FPR on clones with different levels of resistance was investigated in four localities of Santander State, Colombia, between July ...

Moniliophthora roreri (frosty pod rot). [PDF]

Molecular Plant Pathology, 2021
Abstract The invasive basidiomycete pathogen M. roreri originated in Western Colombia/Ecuador. In recent years it has expanded its range in South America (Peru, Venezuela and Bolivia) and throughout Mesoamerica as far as Mexico. Africa, Asia and insular Caribbean are still free of this pathogen. M.

Selecting cacao clones with high productivity potential and tolerance to Black Pod Rot (Phytophthora sp.) and Frosty Pod Rot (Moniliophthora roreri) [PDF]

Journal of Plant Protection Research
Cacao (Theobroma cacao) is significantly impacted each year by Frosty Pod Rot (FPR) caused by Moniliophthora roreri and Black Pod Rot (BPR) caused by Phytophthora species. The losses from these diseases pose a severe threat to cacao production worldwide.
