The Mitochondrial Genome of Moniliophthora roreri, the Frosty Pod Rot Pathogen of Cacao
In this study, we report the sequence of the mitochondrial (mt) genome of the Basidiomycete fungus Moniliophthora roreri, which is the etiologic agent of frosty pod rot of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.). We also compare it to the mtDNA from the closely-related species Moniliophthora perniciosa, which causes witches' broom disease of cacao.

Abstract Frosty pod rot (FPR), caused by Moniliophthora roreri, and black pod (BP), caused by Phytophthora spp., of cocoa (Theobroma cacao) cause combined pod losses of more than 80% in Panama. Biological control of both diseases appeared promising in Peru and is desired by certified organic producers in Panama.

Chapter 7 follows the journey of frosty pod rot from the first report of the disease in 1895 in western Ecuador to the present day, where it has spread to much of South and Central America, and several Caribbean countries. To date, it has not been reported in Brazil, and considerable effort is being expended to ensure it does not spread to other cacao ...

What's in a Name: Crinipellis, the Final Resting Place for the Frosty Pod Rot Pathogen of Cocoa?
The Mycologist, 2002Confusion still surrounds the identify and even the common name of the causal agent of frosty pod rot of cocoa, nearly 70 years after its placement in the genus Monilia, and over 20 years since its transfer to the new genus Moniliophthora, which was erected to accommodate what was considered to be a basidiomycete anamorph.
