    A model for predicting the BlACK POD development in cacao under laboratory conditions
    (1995) Senavirathne, M.A.P.K.; Liyanage, A. De S.; Adikaram, N.K.B.
    Five cacao varieties were screened for 'Black Pod' development by Phytophthora in semimature, harvested pods. The size of lesions on pods of each variety was measured on 5 consecutive days. The results showed that the rate of lesion development could be fitted to an exponential curve. This curve may be useful for predicting the lesion size within a 5 day period.
