List of durian diseases and pests

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Durians are an agricultural product affected by many plant pathogens and pests. Most of the information here concerns Durio zibethinus, the major commercial species, but a dozen species in the genus Durio are edible durians, and several of those are also grown commercially and these diseases can concern them as well.

Algae[edit]

Animals[edit]

Vertebrates[edit]

These are animals that eat or destroy durian fruit or trees. Many of these are shot or poisoned by farmers.[6] Some of these species naturally act as seed dispersers,[7] which benefits the plant but does not benefit farmers.

Invertebrates[edit]

Most of these are arthropods, but nematodes and gastropods are also of concern.[3]

Arthropods[edit]

Other invertebrates[edit]

Bacteria[edit]

Fungi[edit]

Fungi affect both the tree before harvest and the fruit after harvest. Some listed species may only cause cosmetic damage, or the association is unknown.

Oomycetes[edit]

Oomycetes are often confused with fungi.

Plants[edit]

Some plants growing on durian trees can be problematic or even parasitic.

Non-pathogenic epiphytes and symbiotes[edit]

These species live on or in durian trees as epiphytes but typically do not harm the tree or fruit. However, Trentepohlia species can grow thick enough to block lenticels and inhibit ramiflorous flowering.[2]

Hyperparasites and secondary associations[edit]

Hyperparasitism is when durian parasites become the hosts for other parasites.
