Involvement of calcium oxalate degradation during programmed cell death in Theobroma cacao tissues triggered by the hemibiotrophic fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa

2007-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Moniliophthora perniciosa, the causal agent of witches' broom disease of Theobroma cacao, significantly affected cacao production in South America and Caribbean countries. Host colonization by the pathogen exhibits a concerted succession of symptoms, starting with hypertrophic growth and "broom" formation, followed by tissue degeneration and death. To understand mechanisms of host susceptibility, we investigated f...
