Characterization Of Fusarium Mangiferae And F. Proliferatum, And Management Of Mango Malformation Disease

Mango is one of the most favourable fruits by Malaysians. Malaysia produced at an estimated of a hundred and two kilo tonnes of mango yearly. However, the local market demand towards mango is very high. Thus, Malaysia still imports the fruits from other countries such as Thailand and Australia. The...
