The differential influence of temperature on Phytophthora megakarya and Phytophthora palmivora pod lesion expansion, mycelia growth, gene expression, and metabolite profiles
2018-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Phytophthora megakarya and Phytophthora palmivora cause black pod rot of cacao. P. megakarya occurs in Africa while P. palmivora is distributed world-wide. P. palmivora has a higher temperature maximum (34 °C) than P. megakarya (30 °C). Factors contributing to temperature maxima in Phytophthora species have not been studied in detail. In culture, P. megakarya lost viability after 3 days at 32 °C while P. palmivora...
