PINK DISEASE OF PLANTATION RUBBER. [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, 1915
SUMMARY The distribution, hosts, and mode of action of Pink Disease are described and its importance as a disease of plantation rubber is emphasised. The various forms of Corticium salmonicolor are described. It is pointed out that the fungus is not a typical Corticium and that the pink incrustation is very frequently sterile.

Network complexity of rubber plantations is lower than tropical forests for soil bacteria but not for fungi

open access: yesThe Soil, 2022
. Soil microbial communities play a crucial role in ecosystem functioning. Past research has examined the effects of forest conversion on soil microbial composition and diversity, but it remains unknown how networks within these communities respond to ...

Application of Optical Remote Sensing in Rubber Plantations: A Systematic Review

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) is a tropical tree crop cultivated for the industrial production of latex. The trees are tall, perennial and long-lived, and are typically grown in plantations. In most rubber-producing countries, smallholders account for more

Converting tropical rainforest to native rubber plantations alters soil bacterial and fungal communities

open access: yesCircular Agricultural Systems, 2022
Driven by soil biochemistry and plant community composition, soil microbial communities reflect land management and environmental conditions. To evaluate the effects of land-use change on soil microbial diversity, we used denaturing gradient gel ...

Stingless bee foraging behavior and pollen resource use in oil palm and rubber plantations in Sumatra

open access: yesJurnal Entomologi Indonesia, 2021
Land transformation in the tropical rainforests to monoculture plantations leads to biodiversity loss and abiotic change. In the oil palm and rubber plantations of Sumatra, we explored the foraging behavior of stingless bees Lepidotrigona terminata ...
