Sequence analysis of Ganoderma boninense isolates from oil palm

[摘要] Basal Stem Rot (BSR) is a prevalent oil palm disease caused by Ganoderma fungus. Many oil palm plantations suffered losses due to BSR disease, which caused deaths of oil palm crops. Ganoderma has host plants from the Palmae family such as oil palm, coconut, Nipah, aren, areca nut, papyrus, and also can be found in Industrial Plantation Forest (HTI) like Acacia, even in the forest wood can also be encountered Ganoderma. Ganoderma has high genetic diversity. Fruiting bodies which isolated from oil palm tree located in different locations is one of the factors causing genetic diversity. The Ganoderma isolates analysed in this study were isolates derived from different oil palm plantation. Ganoderma isolates collection of PT Socfindo is used in a screening test to obtain oil palm material which has resistance to Ganoderma attack. The present study confirmed through DNA sequences that Ganoderma derived from oil palm has been defined as a Ganoderma boninense, that is very virulent for the appearance of BSR disease.
