Evaluation of major foliar diseases in commercial oil palm nurseries for improving disease management
Field surveys were conducted in nine selected oil palm nurseries in Peninsular Malaysia including government and private nurseries which provided and supplied oil palm planting materials in Malaysia. Studies covered 4 nurseries in Johor (Kluang, Bkt Tongkat, Kahang and Ayer Hitam), 3 nurseries in...

Field surveys were conducted in nine selected oil palm nurseries in Peninsular
Malaysia including government and private nurseries which provided and supplied oil
palm planting materials in Malaysia. Studies covered 4 nurseries in Johor (Kluang,
Bkt Tongkat, Kahang and Ayer Hitam), 3 nurseries in Perak (Teluk Intan, Permatang
Guntung and Kg Bakar Arang) and 2 nurseries in Selangor (Sepang and Kuala
Langat). The disease evaluation revealed that leaf spot disease was a major problem
with the highest mean incidence is 62.81% compared to anthracnose disease at
16.52%. For disease incidence of leaf spot disease, the highest incidences were
recorded in Kuala Langat, Selangor (90.3%) and Kluang, Johor (87.7%). The least
incidences of leaf spot were recorded in 3 nurseries in Perak occurring between 50 to
55%. For assessment of disease incidence of anthracnose, the highest incidence was
recorded in Kuala Langat, Selangor (45.0%) and the least incidences were recorded in
6 nurseries which were located in Johor and Perak occurring between 8.0 to 14.0%.
For assessment of disease severity, high severities for leaf spot disease were recorded
in Kluang (64.7%) and Kahang, Johor (59.22%). Besides, the least severity was
recorded in Permatang Guntung, Perak with 19.23%. For severity of anthracnose, high
severities were recorded in Kuala Langat, Selangor (9.1%) and Teluk Intan, Perak
(6.57%) and the least severities were recorded in 6 nurseries which were located in
Johor and Perak occurring between 1.0 to 2.5%. The study also found disease
incidence of leaf spot and anthracnose diseases were both highly significant with
different age of seedling. As the seedling became older, incidence of leaf spot and
anthracnose diseases were reduced. For leaf spot disease, seedling 0-4 month score the
highest percentage at 77.47% followed by 4-12 month which was 72.89% and seedling
with age 12 month and above were most resistance with lowest score 49.0%. This was
similar with disease incidence of anthracnose for 0-4 months (21.56%), 4-12 months
(16.86%) and with the least incidence was observed in seedlings aged 12 months and
above at 14.89%. For interaction of seedling age with disease severity of leaf spot, study revealed that there was highly significant relationship between disease severity
and seedling ages. Seedling with age 0-4 month were most susceptible and severely
affected (50.90%) followed by seedling age 4-12 month (39.84%) and the most
resistance seedling age is comes to seedling with 12 month and above with only
18.4%. However, for disease severity of anthracnose, there was no significant
relationship. Study found that, these three stages of ages which were 0-4 month
(3.5%), 4-12 month (3.83%) and 12 month and above (3.31%) score the disease
severity with mostly the same with each other. The symptoms of leaf spot and
anthracnose diseases also were recorded and characterized based on field observation.
For isolation of pathogen, study indicated that anthracnose was found to be associated
mainly with Colletotrichum spp. Meanwhile, leaf spot was found mostly associated
with Curvularia sp., and Pestalotiopsis sp. For interaction of agricultural practices
with disease incidence and severity of leaf spot, study found that there was no
significant correlation between disease incidence of leaf spot with irrigation system,
frequency of watering, mulching and water sources for seedling 0-4 month and 12
month and above. However, for seedling 4-12 month, there was negative correlation
between water sources with leaf spot incidence (-0.76*) and severity (-0.84**). For
anthracnose disease, there was no significant correlation between disease incidence
and severity with irrigation system, frequency watering, mulching and water sources
for seedling 0-4 month, 4-12 month and 12 month and above. |
