Discussion

Analysis reveals higher disease progress in second-generation oil palms on flat terrain, indicating replanting history matters.

Second-generation oil palms showed higher basal stem rot disease progress, emphasizing age's impact on disease severity.
The study found that the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) was significantly higher in specific conditions, suggesting topographic influence.
Non-parametric statistical tests were applied to analyze data from 1,184 oil palm trees, highlighting unique field conditions.
Results imply that understanding planting history and terrain is essential for effective management of ganoderma disease.

Jazuli et al. (2025) studied this question.
