In Malaysia, where the disease has plagued farmers for over a decade, papayas have an export value of approximately 24-28 million USD per year (Maktar et al. 2008). With bacterial crown rot affecting approximately 800 hectares of papaya on the Malaysian Peninsula alone (Maktar et al. 2008), this results in a huge loss in profit for the ...

Under waterlogged conditions, P. palmivora may attack roots of papaya older than three-months of age, the time at which they become resistant to the pathogen under normal conditions. Therefore, Phytophthora root rot may occur on papaya at any age in poorly drained ...
