Suitable rubber growing in Ecuador: An approach to South American leaf blight

2015-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Rubber growing (Hevea brasiliensis) is showing real development in Latin America, where the production of natural rubber is still held back by the incidence of the South American leaf disease caused by a fungus, Microcyclus ulei, recently renamed Pseudocercospora ulei, which causes repeated defoliation of trees. The solutions are genetic in order to grow varieties resistant to the disease, or developing new planta...
