Tropical Crops Genetic Resources Institute-CATAS, China and Naliendele Agricultural Research Institute P. Diseases and Insect Pests of cashew in Tanzania. The agronomy and economy of important tree crops of the developing world. Some unidentified pathogens, pests and other abnormalities were also observed. The insect pests identified included Oecophylla smaragdina, Anoplocne miscurvipeson, Pseudotheraptus devastans, Pachnoda cordata, Pachnoda marginata, Helopeltis bug, Helopeltis schoutedeni, Planococcus sp., Lamida moncusalis, Odontotermes sp., Aphis sp., Analeptes trifasciata. Anthracnose, gummosis, algal leaf, and stem spots (red rust) and cashew kernel infection by Curvularia lunata constituted the major diseases of cashew in ascending order in the study area. (red rust- algal leaf spot), mushroom and lichens were also found to be associated with the cashew orchards in the study area. Others, such as Penicillium sp., powdery mildew, Curvularia lunata, Cephaleuros sp. ![]() was associated with Pestalotia leaf spot. The results showed Colletotrichum gloeosporioides species complex to be associated with anthracnose, leaf lesions or spots, gummosis of twigs and stems and regressive die-back Lasiodiplodia theobromae was found to cause stem and twig gummosis, blight, die-back of twigs and inflorescence Pestalotia sp. Insect pests were also assessed and identified. Diseased samples showing varying degrees of symptoms were taken for isolation and identification using morphological method. Owing to its importance, surveys were conducted in some major cashew producing communities in Dormaa and Berekum West District of the Bono region to assess the problems of insect pests and diseases associated with this economic tree across the study area. Cashew ( Anacardium occidentale L.), a recently recognized cash crop in Ghana, is an economically export oriented crop that plays a helping role in the Ghanaian economy in diverse ways. ![]()
