Estimation of Genetic Parameters Associated With Frosty Pod Rot (Moniliophthora roreri) and Cacao Production in Mexico

Tree Genetics and Genomes, 2021
Genetic parameters were estimated for frosty pod rot resistance and yield components in cacao using a linear mixed model approach (restricted maximum likelihood and best linear unbiased prediction). Two progeny trials established in the Rosario Izapa Experimental Field of the INIFAP in Chiapas, Mexico, were evaluated for frosty pod rot incidence and ...

Development of microsatellites for the cacao frosty pod rot pathogen, Moniliophthora roreri

open access: yesForest Pathology, 2014
SummaryMoniliophithora roreri, causal agent of cacao frosty pod rot, is considered one of the most devastating pathogens of this crop. In this study, we report the development of and validation of 28 microsatellite loci from an enriched library. From these, ten loci were demonstrated to be polymorphic in an Ecuadorian population composed of 27 isolates.

Frosty Pod Rot (Moniliophthora roreri)

2016
The history of frosty pod rot is chronologed and divided conveniently into periods or eras to better reflect the state of knowledge of the disease at the time. During the first period (1917–1975), the causal agent was ascribed to a species of Monilia (Ascomycota), but knowledge of the life cycle—including the mechanics of dispersal and infection—was ...

INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT OF THE INVASIVE COCOA PATHOGEN MONILIOPHTHORA RORERI, CAUSAL AGENT OF FROSTY POD ROT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The basidiomycete Moniliophthora roreri causes the devastating frosty pod rot (FPR) disease of cocoa (Theobroma cacao), a disease that commonly reduces yields by over 80% within a few years of pathogen establishment. The invasive pathogen originated in Western Colombia/Ecuador.

Frosty Pod Rot, Disease That Affects the Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) Crops in Colombia

Crop Protection, 2017
Abstract Frosty Pod Rot, caused by Moniliophthora roreri (Cif. & Par.) Evans et al. (1986), is considered the main pathogenic factor affecting the cocoa crops in Colombia and in other Central and South America countries. In this paper we present relevant characteristics of the disease with emphasis on the symptomatology, the life cycle and ...

Improving the formulation and timing of application of endophytic biocontrol and chemical agents against frosty pod rot (Moniliophthora roreri) in cocoa (Theobroma cacao) [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Control, 2010
Frosty pod rot (FPR), caused by Moniliophthora roreri, reduces yields of cocoa (Theobroma cacao) by over 80% within a few years of disease outbreak. Both biological and chemical control approaches are being developed to supplement cultural management. Our objectives were to optimize the agent(s), their formulation and application regime for FPR control

Incidence of Cacao Frosty Pod Rot in a Tree of the Clone CCN – 51 Exposed to a Concentrated Infection Source Originating of the Ground

open access: yes, 2023
The impact of an infection ground source of Cacao frosty pod rot (Moniliophthora roreri (Cif. & Par.) Evans et al. was determined through the incidence of the disease in a tree of cacao from clone CCN - 51. For this purpose, the source of infection compounded by 27 diseased fruits, of which 24 were in a profuse degree of sporulation, was introduced

Frosty pod rot: a major threat to cacao plantations on the move

Tropical Plant Pathology, 2021
Frosty pod rot, caused by Moniliophthora roreri, is the most damaging disease of cacao in both Central and Latin American cacao-producing regions. The high aggressiveness and efficient dispersion of M. roreri as well as the lack of effective control strategies for managing frosty pod rot are responsible for its devastating effect in cacao plantations ...

Frosty pod rot, caused by Moniliophthora roreri

2018
Frosty pod rot (FPR) of cacao (Theobroma cacao) is caused by Moniliophthora roreri. FPR commonly can reduce yields by over 80% and is extremely difficult to manage. This chapter reviews the origins, spread and impact of Moniliophthora roreri. It also discusses methods for managing FPR, from strategies for prevention, early detection and rapid response (

The causal agents of witches’ broom and frosty pod rot of cacao (chocolate,Theobroma cacao) form a new lineage of Marasmiaceae

Mycologia, 2005
The two most devastating diseases of cacao (Theobroma cacao)--the source of chocolate--in tropical America are caused by the fungi Crinipellis perniciosa (witches' broom disease) and Moniliophthora roreri (frosty pod rot or moniliasis disease). Despite the agricultural, socio-economic and environmental impact of these fungi, most aspects of their life ...
