Endophytic Association of Trichoderma asperellum within Theobroma cacao Suppresses Vascular Streak Dieback Incidence and Promotes Side Graft Growth. [PDF]
Trichoderma species are able to persist on living sapwood and leaves of cacao (Theobroma cacao) in an endophytic relationship. In this research, we evaluated the ability of Trichodema asperellum introduced at the incision site in the bark for side grafting with the concentration of 4 g/10 mL, 4 g/100 mL, and 4 g/1,000 mL (suspended in water) in ...

Investigation of Vascular-Streak Dieback of Cocoa in Papua New Guinea [PDF]
Vasoular·streak diebaok of ooooa in Papua New Guinea has different symptoms from the diseases oommonly referred to as ooooa diebaok in other ooooa·growing oountries. The symptoms of this destruotive disease of ooooa have not previously been reported outside Papua New Guinea. A speoies of tulasnelloid fungus, Oncobasidium theobromae (Talbot & Keane),

Abstract Vascular-streak dieback (VSD) is the main disease of the cacao plant caused by Ceratobasidium theobromae. The VSD disease can potentially reduce cacao yields by up to 45%. VSD control using secondary metabolites of Trichoderma spp. can suppress the disease incidence in the field.

Potential and Stability of Promising Fine Flavor Cocoa Clones in Different Seasons:
The intensity of vascular streak dieback (VSD) disease is one of the major causes of decreased fine flavor cocoa production in Indonesia; therefore, it is essential to develop superior planting materials resistant to this disease.

Lasiodiplodia theobromae causes vascular streak dieback (VSD)–like symptoms of cacao in Davao Region, Philippines [PDF]
Samples of Theobroma cacao seedlings and mature trees with vascular streak dieback (VSD)–like symptoms were observed in Davao, Philippines in 2014. The symptoms were chlorosis and later necrosis of leaves, mostly those second or third from the stem tips.
