Ganoderma Disease

Δεν είναι τυχαίο άλλωστε ότι αιώνες πριν, το Ganoderma lucidum αναφερόταν ως το φάρμακο
που μπορούσε να εξασφαλίσει σε κάποιον αιώνια νεότητα και μακροζωία. Ηταν επίσης γνωστό
και ως το «Μυστικό των Αυτοκρατόρων» αφού λόγω της σπανιότητάς του αποτελούσε την τροφή
των βασιλέων και ειδικότερα της δυναστείας των Μινγκ οι οποίοι το θεωρούσαν κλειδί για να
κατακτήσουν την αθανασία.....

Το γανόδερμα είναι το κορυφαίο προσαρμογόνο βότανο. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι:
Ομαλοποιεί και επαναφέρει όλες τις λειτουργίες του οργανισμού μας στα φυσιολογικά επίπεδα, λαμβάνοντας το σωστό δοσολογικό σχήμα (ανάλογα τις ανάγκες του κάθε οργανισμού)....

Αυξάνει την δύναμη, την αντοχή και την πνευματική διαύγεια. Ενισχύει το ανοσοποιητικό σύστημα. Ρυθμίζει την πίεση Μειώνει την κακή χοληστερίνη Μειώνει τα επίπεδα σακχάρων στο αίμα Εξισορροπεί τα επίπεδα χοληστερόλης Βοηθά στην διαχείριση της απώλειας βάρους. Αναστρέφει τα αποτελέσματα της παχυσαρκίας, του διαβήτη και της αρθρίτιδας.

Oil palm is one of the most important plantation crops in Malaysia. The sustainability of oil palm is threatened by Ganoderma species. It is commonly known that Ganoderma boninense is the causal pathogen for basal stem rot (BSR) in oil palm. However, little is known about the threats by other species of Ganoderma or upper stem rot (USR), which is associated with a similar pathogen. A total of 46 isolates of Ganoderma were isolated from BSR and USR infected oil palms. The isolates were identified using a multiplex PCR, and its genetic heterogeneity was determined using a somatic compatibility test. It was found that BSR and USR coexisted in the plantations, and USR emerged as one of the major diseases. The diseases were associated with similar pathogens, namely G. zonatum (71.7%), followed by G. boninense (26.1%), and G. miniatocinctum (2.2%). Somatic compatibility test indicated that all the isolates were genetically heterogeneous. These results show that G. zonatum and the transmission of the diseases through basidiospores play a vital role in the epidemiology of the diseases. Thus, USR should not be overlooked, and more emphasis should be given to G. zonatum and its mode of transmission for more effective disease management.

For thousands of years Ganoderma has been considered by the
Chinese to be a high quality herbal medicine. The socalled
‘Aone
Medicine’ is the best medicine which does not have any side
effects, even after using it for a long time. It can improve one’s
constitution, increase the body’s healing ability to help maintain a
healthy body, and have a long life.....

Sustainability of the oil palm in Malaysia is threatened by Ganoderma species causing stem rot. There were many studies conducted to understand the etiology and epidemiology of the disease in West Malaysia, however none of them reported the situation in Sabah, one of the leading producers. Moreover, the mode of Ganoderma spread in oil palm is least understood. Thus, the aims for this study were to investigate the infection mode of Ganoderma species in oil palm based on the in-vitro cultural characteristics and somatic compatibility. A total of 21 Ganoderma basidiocarps were isolated from stem rot infected palms in an estate in Sandakan, Sabah. These samples were obtained (i) within infected palms; (ii) among infected neighbouring palms; and (iii) five clusters of infected palms. In-vitro morphology of the Ganoderma isolates was characterized based on 21 characteristics via a dendrogram. Somatic compatibility was accessed to investigate the genetic heterogenicity. There was a narrow variability (93 to 100%) in terms of the cultural characteristics, and the variations exhibited among the isolates regardless of their origin. The isolates may exhibit similar phenotype, but not necessarily have similar genotype, and vice versa. Based on the somatic compatibility test, it was found that all pairings showed incompatible reactions except in self-pairing and between isolates C5P3-1 and C5P3-2 which were isolated from the same infected palm (genetically identical). These findings indicated that infection of Ganoderma in a single palm and neighbouring palms generally were caused by mult iple unidentical strains. This further concludes that spread of Ganoderma species in oil palm via root-to-root contact is uncommon. Thus, the basidiospores may play an important role in the disease epidemiology, and further research and management strategies of the disease should focus on this.
