Review on the potential of endophytic microorganisms as biological control agents of cocoa diseases / Sitti Raihana Bazilah Bacho

This review paper aims to discuss on the potential of endophytic microorganism as bio-control agents to control cocoadiseases. The review covers four main topics which are (i) the current production of cocoa in Malaysia, (ii) the role of endophytic fungi and (iii) bacteria as biological control coco...

The application of endophytic microorganisms as biological control agents to combat cocoa diseases is well explored as the microorganisms show big potential to inhibit the growth of pathogens through multiple mechanisms.
