A Global perspective on pepper pathogen diversity, disease dynamics, and sustainable management

Anthracnose in peppers is a major global disease. Dr Lourena Arone Maxwell (Scientist–Plant Pathologist, World Vegetable Center) shares insights on its spread and management. Recorded at the 27th International Pepper Conference (Bangkok, Thailand, January 19–22, 2026), this presentation explores the global impact of anthracnose disease on pepper crops, highlighting pathogen diversity, disease dynamics, and sustainable management strategies. It covers integrated approaches including resistant cultivars, biocontrol, and improved agronomy to address this major agricultural challenge. #PepperConference #Anthracnose #PlantPathology #CropProtection #IPC2026
