AAB) and to analyse some of the aspects of itsoccurence in the State of Goiás. The disease drastically affects production, and occurs more severely during the rainy season (October to April), going so far as to affect almost all of the bunches in certain regions. Based on the results obtained in isolation,u􀂡 der aseptic conditions, and using Koch's postulate, the pri mary cause of the disease was determined to be the fungus G"l!:!_ esporium muaarum Cooke & Massee, which acts under predisp􀂳 sing climatic conditions. It was suggested that clonal characteristics, climatic conditions, and the potential of available innoculum were the principal factors involved in the spread of the disease in certain regions.porAcesso AbertoArtigo
