Abstract

Coconut root (wilt) disease has been referred to by various authors under different names. The variations in the name have created confusion among readers and reviewers to mistake the disease for other disorders in the coconut palm. A list of all such names used in the literature hitherto is given in alphabetical order. A chronological order of the variations is cited. Suitability of each name is discussed. From among the available names, coconut root (wilt) disease is chosen and recommended for use by all workers for the sake of uniformity, until such time as a new name can justifiably replace it.
