1 Tristan Gerardo!...!...It es is Phytophothora for you Findings and advances on Ganoderma in oil palm. Tristan Durand-Gasselin, Nicolas Turnbull, Hubert de Franqueville, Fréderic Breton, Indra Syahputra and Benoit Cochard.

2 Ganoderma is a major disease to oil palm It causes considerable losses in Asia and in Africa (Up to 80 %)

3 Field symptoms Thailand Indonesia Cameroon

6 Ganoderma?

8 Ganoderma species may cause diseases on : Oak Maple Sycamore Areca (Betelnut) Acacia.. and oil palm About Ganoderma Ganoderma boninense on Bactris

9 About Ganoderma Ganodermatacae are basidiomycota fungi. Taxonomy is very confused : it is a difficult genera among the polypore More than 400 names but probably only 100 to 150 species. May be only 80. Colour, shiny or dull, morphology, Geography, spores/basidiospores, hyphal elements leads to a lot of confusions.

10 About Ganoderma Today we have different molecular tools that has their own urlity. Among them : ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer from ribosome DNA) is very convenient to characterize species and to construct phylogenerc relaronship. (Supraspecific, specific, subspecific, less efficient for popularon- level relaronships). SSR (Simple Sequence Repeats (microsatellites)) are useful to study the generc diversity within species and to idenrfy races.

11 PhylogeneEc of Ganoderma G. Lucidum (medecine) In Asia, G. boninense is generally the one associated to oil palm G. zonatum G. boninense Frequently related to palms From J- M. Moncalvo

12 Ganoderma : diversity 372 isolates Asia SE (Thailand + Penninsular Malaisia + Indonesia Sumatera) From : J. S. Tan F. Breton L. Camus M. Mercière N_sumatra malay_p S_sumatra Thai Borneo G.res G. resinaceum 34 isolates from Bornéo Afr 32 isolates from Cameroun Is the work done in Sumatra valid for Borneo or Africa?

13 Biology of Ganoderma Ganoderma, as most basidiomycota, have a monocaryorc (n) and a dicaryorc phase (2n). The dicaryorc phase result from the fusion 2 monocaryorc mycelium as long as they are of marng comparble type. Only the dicaryoec mycelia is pathogenic

14 What did we learn from the field?

15 Ganoderma & Previous crop Rubber Forest Oil Palms Coconut Ganoderma infecron will increase with 2 nd generaron of oil palm and further From Singh, 1991

16 Dispersion of Ganoderma Palm to palm through roots? Yes Dispersion through spores? Very likely yes also. Some confirmaron : Role of roots has been confirm since long (Turner/Arifin) Bait palms are infected by the same strain (Flood) Huge diversity within a field (Sanderson/Piloh)

17 Dispersion of Ganoderma (Cont..) One palm and different strain : We have to keep in mind that situaeons are diverse

18 Bait Palms Infected adult palm Bait young palm Bait Palms InfecRon of bait palms is very fast (< 2 years) It has been found that the strains were idenrcal (J. Flood)

19 Bait Palms/ removing the source Removing the source Status of the bole Depth of the bole % bait seedling infected Infected (BSR) 0 75 % Infected (BSR) 20 cm 58 % Infected (BSR) 40 cm 28 % Infected (BSR) 60 cm 21 % Infected (BSR) 80 cm 0 % Infected (BSR) 100 cm 0 % Control (Healthy) 60 0 % From Flood et al ReplanEng to be done far from the sources

20 ReplanEng at the same density ReplanEng between old palms is a good compromise

21 ReplanEng at 160 palms/ha Changing the inieal density Increase the risk of BSR

22 GeneEc back ground Akbar was the first to report, in 1971, the high susceptibility to BSR of pure Deli planted in North Sumatra as compared to Deli x Yangambi Mata Pao : Plantations 1955 and 1958 Tanah Gambus : Plantations 1957 Observations : % Basal Stem Rot (Ganoderma) Mata Pao Pure Deli Deli x Yangambi Tanah Gambus Source: from Akbar et al. 1971

45 Breeding for Ganoderma resistance Specific Resistance (monogenic resistance) = complete resistance to some specific isolates/races Specific resistance may be easily broken Versus Non- specific Resistance (mul7gene resistance) = pareal resistance effeceve against all isolates/races of the pathogen. As a consequence the planters must not expect «Zero Disease»

46 About resistance The International Seed Federation encourage seed producer to define following wording : Immunity, resistance, tolerance, susceptibility... The ISF encourage to classify varieties in three levels: highly resistant or intermediate resistant or non resistant. Our strategy aims at selecting for multiple defense genes involved in (partial) resistance. This selection will push toward providing sustainable resistance.

47 Early screening test A burden! crosses x 100 plants /test - 10 tests / year / locaron palms /year

48 index Susceptibility Base 100: Trial mean Resistance x

49 Early screening test Repeatability : To what extend is the test consistent? Trial SuscepEble Resistant cross cross Test Test Test Test Test Test Test Test Test Test Yes : but needs reperrons.

50 Early screening test InteracRon : Are resistances to one isolate of Ganoderma valid for all isolates? Progenies Islolate (agressivity) A B C D E F V ( +) W (++) X ( +) Y ( +) Z ( -) Yes : ranking is very much the same.

52 Early screening test As Early screening test is : 1. Repeatable 2. Does not show interacron isolate / planrng material. 3. AddiRvity is the main effect This enables us to design tests with reference parents (testors) : Pisifera Deli 1 Pisifera Deli 2 Pisifera Deli 3 Pisifera Deli 4 x Same pisifera Dura Pisifera Deli can can be be compared

62 PerspecEves 1. Seeds will be improved conrnuously from intermediate resistance towards high resistances. 2. Development of molecular markers to help breeders (QTLs, QTAs,.) 3. Development of Clones 4. Beper understanding of the interacron Ganoderma / Oil Palm

63 Conclusion q Ganoderma exist in all continent q Some agricultural practices are efficient to control it q Evidence of genetic resistance in the field. q Development of an early screening test. q Additive inheritance. q Intensive screening of parents A & B groups q Ganoderma partially resistant seeds are available An added value for planters
