<i>Rhizoctonia theobromae</i> associated with a severe witches’ broom outbreak in cassava of the Brazilian rainforest and evidence of its Southeast Asian origin

2025-02-18

Abstract excerpt

Cassava witches’ broom disease (CWBD) has emerged as a significant threat to cassava production in the Oiapoque region of Amapá, Brazil. Diseased plants exhibit stunted growth, vascular necrosis, abnormal shoot proliferation, and distinctive broom-like appearance. This study aimed to characterize the disease and identify its causal agent(s). The assessment by high-throughput sequencing of total nucleic acids (DNA...
