Biology stage of Moniliophthora roreri in Colombia

Abstract

Frosty pod rot disease of cocoa plants is caused by the basiodiomycete Moniliophthora roreri -- Nowadays, this disease is present in almost all Latin American countries producers of cocoa beans, exhibiting high adaptation to diverse environments -- In Colombia, it is the most important disease attacking cocoa crops and the traditional strategies for control have generated side results as strengthening in genetic resistance of strains in some regions -- In this review, we collected the most relevant biological and agricultural aspects of this disease such as origin and distribution of the disease, life cycle, forms of disease control and research projects oriented to understand the genetic and evolution of this pathogen -- Finally, we suggest increasing the number of basic researches, aiming to understand, how this pathogen has evolved its genome in different habitats, favoring its genetic variation -- Thus, with all this knowledge, we could advance in biotechnology programs for control and prevention of the Frosty rod pot

La moniliasis es una enfermedad fúngica que ataca el cultivo de cacao, causada por el basidiomycete Moniliophthora roreri -- Está presente en la mayoría de los países latinoamericanos y se adapta a diversidad de ambientes -- En Colombia la enfermedad es devastadora y las estrategias de control tradicional han generado resultados colaterales como el fortalecimiento de la resistencia genética de cepas del hongo en algunas regiones -- En esta revisión, se recopilan los aspectos biológicos y agronómicos más relevantes del hongo, entre ellos, origen y distribución, ciclo de vida, formas de control y trabajos de investigación realizados con el fin de entender la genética y evolución de este patógeno -- Finalmente, se propone incrementar el número de estudios en investigación básica, con miras a entender cómo ha sido la evolución de su genoma en hábitats que favorecen la variación genética -- Con este conocimiento se podría avanzar en programas biotecnológicos de control y prevención de la enfermedad
