Cadang-cadang disease of coconut palm

J W Randles et al. Microbiol Sci. 1988 Jan.

Abstract

Cadang-cadang disease has caused the death of over 30 million coconut palms, and no control measures are known. The causal viroid is the smallest known pathogen. Field diagnostic tests will soon be developed to allow mapping of the distribution and spread of the viroid and this should lead to the identification of appropriate control measures.
