Ganoderma zonatum is a plant pathogen that infects the palm species causing butt rot. It is a fungus that infects the bottom 122–152 centimeters (4–5 feet) of the plant also rotting the roots. It has been known to be in both natural and planted environments and in the majority of cases only in palms.

The fungus has been isolated from a wide variety of palm tissue. The fungus is not host specific so the disease could be present in many more types of palm, but further research needs to be done. The fungus has also been known to infect pygmy date palm (Phoenix roebelenii) and has been a big problem in Florida during the winter months. [1]

Butt rot is a disease of plants, mostly trees, caused by fungi. The fungus attacks the moist, poorly protected undersurface of tree trunk's thickest part (the "butt" above the root, as opposed to "top"), where the end of the stem makes contact with the soil. It may affect the roots as well, causing a disease known as root rot. It then moves up ...
G. orbiforme (= G. boninense), G. zonatum and G. miniatocinctum are responsible for basal stem rot disease in Asian oil palm plantations. [23] [better source needed] G. philippii and G. pseudoferreum are responsible for the root rot of cacao, coffee, rubber and tea trees. Ganoderma are wood-decaying fungi with a cosmopolitan distribution. They ...
Lethal yellowing (LY) is a phytoplasma disease that attacks many species of palms, including some commercially important species, such as the coconut and date palm.In the Caribbean, it is spread by the planthopper Haplaxius crudus (former name Myndus crudus) which is native to Florida, parts of the Caribbean, parts of Australia and Central America.
