Issues of Ganoderma spp . and Basal Stem Rot Disease Management in Oil Palm

The genus Ganoderma , in generally the ancient fungus in the fungus world. The genus of the fungus have long been noticed as economically important fungus either as helpful for medicinal purpose use or harmful as pathogen of some economical crop plant such as rubber, coconut or oil palm plant. In both three plants it is caused the disease called basal stem rot, since the causal pathogen appear its fruiting body on the basal portion of the plant. Mainly three species of Ganoderma , namely G. boninense , G. zoanatum , G. miniatocinctum are caused the BSR disease. Literature suggested Ganoderma boninense is the most devastator species to cause grate economical effect on palm oil industry. This review paper are highlighted the current feature of Ganoderma spp. and its controlling approach for basal stem rot disease in oil palm ( Elaeis guineensis Jacq.).
