Abstract
The Phytophthora species infecting black pepper, arecanut, rubber, cocoa,
coconut and cardamom in the northern districts of Kerala exhibited similar morphological
characters and were identified as Phytophthora palmivora (Butler) Butler.
Onl/cardamom and rubber isolates produced sexual structures on culture media.
Cross inoculation studies with all these isolates yielded successful results.
