The marker is the first species-specific PCR marker to identify and detect the presence of M. palmivorus. The marker is developed based on internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene cluster using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique. PCR is established and well known molecular protocol, therefore can be easily adopted by any […]
The developed in vitro tissue culture pathogenicity technique is the first to establish the natural manifestation of Ganoderma infection without any wounding or any form of pressure to recreate Ganoderma infection that were demonstrated earlier by two publications (Govender and Wong, 2017; Goh et al., 2016).

The design and development of an automatic detection system of the oil palm bagworms are based on deep convolutional neural networks (Conv. Net) and ordinary camera. It consists of motion-tracking and false color analysis to detect and count the number of living and dead larvae and pupae of M. plana population per frond, corresponding to […]
