Review Update on the Life Cycle, Plant–Microbe Interaction, Genomics, Detection and Control Strategies of the Oil Palm Pathogen Ganoderma boninense

Abstract: Plant pathogens are key threats to agriculture and global food security, causing various crop diseases that lead to massive economic losses. Palm oil is a commodity export of economic importance in Southeast Asia, especially in Malaysia and Indonesia. However, the sustainability of oil palm plantations and production is threatened by basal stem rot (BSR), a devastating disease predominantly caused by the fungus Ganoderma boninense Pat. In Malaysia, infected trees have been reported in nearly 60% of plantation … Show more

“…A low frequency of multiple strain infections of G. boninense was demonstrated by Rakib et al (2020), finding one co-infection out of 17 diseased oil palms. Ganoderma is a fungus that produces abundant basidiospores and hence harbors abundant somatically incompatible strains (Bharudin et al, 2022). Still, few have reported the incidence of co-infection of somatically incompatible G. boninense strains in the field.…”

“…Basal stem rot (BSR) is a major disease in oil palm plantations in Indonesia (Goh et al, 2014;Wong et al, 2021). The diseases caused by the fungus Ganoderma boninense have been reported to have a high incidence at all growing stages of oil palms (Santoso, 2020), with a high attack rate can reach 60% (Bharudin et al, 2022). The disease cannot be optimally controlled because it is symptomless in the early period of infection and non-specific.…”

“…Without prompt measurement, the infected plant will usually die within two years from the first appearance of the BSR disease symptoms. To date, although research has been done on the treatment of BSR, there is no cure for BSR disease [10][11][12]. Therefore, research has been done to find G. boninense-resistant planting materials to alleviate the spread and damage caused by G. boninense [13][14][15].…”

“…Furthermore, the fungus G. boninense has different genetic variability with different pathogenicity against plants. It may be because parts of the genome have suffered duplication or deletion during the evolution of various strains (Bharudin et al, 2022). The population structure is likely a reflection of the high genetic variability of the G. boninense population.…”
