Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi fungus) is known to cause severe loss in the forest stands throughout the country. Its incidence in Delonix regia is more prominent in humid regions and semi-arid regions. On the contrary to this Peltophorum pterocarpum seems to be more tolerant than Delonix tree to the incidence of G. lucidum even in sami-arid locations. There is need to explore the mechanism of tolerance to G. lucidum in P. Pterocarpum tree species. For better management of stands, both the species need to be planted in alternate rows to check the spread of G. lucidum in plantations.References
