ABSTRACT

Fungal and viral infections represent a major cause of cocoa disease in agriculture. Plant protection through biological control is an alternative strategy in agriculture to control pests. Recognition of certain non-pathogenic rhizobacteria by plants can trigger a systemic resistance reaction that renders the host less susceptible to subsequent infection by a virulent agent. The impact of cocoa diseases as black pod, Cocoa Shollen Shoot Virus (CSSV), witches’ broom, and frosty pod rot, has increased dramatically in the world.This paper review emphasizes cocoa disease and utilisation of Bacillus subtilis as biocontrol agent against fungal and virus from cocoa disease in Côte d’Ivoire.
