Thomazella, Daniela Paula de Toledo, 1984-; Teixeira, Paulo José Pereira Lima, 1986-; Pereira, Gonçalo Amarante Guimarães, 1964-Cacao production in Brazil was severely affected by the outbreak of witches’ broom disease (WBD) in the late 1980s. WBD is caused by the basidiomycete fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa, a hemibiotrophic pathogen that displays an uncommonly long-lasting biotrophic stage during which the host cacao suffers intense morphologic alterations in the infected shoots, giving rise to "green brooms." Two months after infec...
