Abstract: Ceratocystis cacaofunesta is the etiologic agent of “Ceratocystis wilt of cacao”, an irreversible disease that affects the vascular system of the plant. The management of the disease is difficult and economic and alternative solutions are needed. The medicinal plants compounds are known to have antimicrobial activity, and they could be an alternative choice in the C. cacaofunesta control. Considering this, this work aimed to verify the in vitro antifungal activity of aqueous and alcoholic solutions of Adiantum… Show more

“…This fungus penetrates the plant through holes and wounds. The CWC pathogenesis is characterized by irreversible damage to the plant’s vascular system, leading to death on the order of 10 4 to 10 5 individuals per plantation, hence significantly reducing cocoa production per area [ 7 , 14 ]. This disease poses a serious threat to global cocoa production due to the high risk of its spread [ 7 , 15 ] by human activities, the main propagation mode described [ 3 ].…”

“…The control of this fungal pathogen is difficult, so the search for alternative economically viable and environmentally friendly solutions is necessary [ 14 ]. Previous research has described the potential of controlling oak wilt (caused by C. fimbriata ) by using the bacterium Pseudomonas chlororaphis subsp.…”
