Evaluating cacao pod resistance to black pod disease caused by three Phytophthora species
Black pod disease is a major threat to global cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) production. It is caused by multiple Phytophthora species with geographic ranges from regionally restricted to pantropical, and developing resistant cultivars requires screening against the diversity of these pathogens. This study evaluated the response of 25 cacao clones to 13 isolates of P. palmivora (eight), P. megakarya…
