Isolation and identification of mycoparasitic isolates of Trichoderma asperellum with potential for suppression of black pod disease of cacao in Cameroon

2007-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Alternative measures to chemical fungicides are needed to control Phytophthora megakarya, the main causal agent of black pod disease in Central and West Africa. Precolonized plate and detached cacao pod assays were used to screen fungal isolates for mycoparasitism on P. megakarya. Of over 200 isolates screened, only Trichoderma asperellum isolates 659-7, PR10, PR11, and PR12 were capable of necrotrophic mycoparasi...
