In this research, we evaluated the suppress capacity of the fungus combined with composted plant residues against the VSD disease on five cocoa clones: S1, MCC 02, AP, THR, and RB. According to VSD development observed in six months, Sulawesi 1 was considered as less sensitive, MCC 02 was moderate resistant, AP was resistant, THR was susceptible, and RB was moderate resistant. The disease incidence on these five clones was 32.9%, 31.0%, 27.9%, 39.9%, and 26.6%, respectively three months post-application and each of this incidence were significantly different (p ≤ 0.05) with the control. While, the efficacy of application was 60.1%, 55.2%, 49.9%, 75.6%, and 37,6%, respectively. These data indicated that capability of T. asperellum in suppressing VSD disease depends on the clone and lowest on the resistant clone. ## Keywords - clone (Java method) - Fungus - Incidence (geometry) - Biology - Disease control - Horticulture - Trichoderma - Streak - Veterinary medicine - Microbiology - Medicine - Virology - Botany - Chemistry - Gene - Genetics - Optics - Physics - Mineralogy --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
