This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Ganoderma lucidium extract on Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV) infection of watermelon
plants. Virus diagnosis was based on the symptoms produced on indicator plants, in addition to using the immunostrip assay. The treatment
with the extract of G. lucidium mixture (mycelium + fruiting body) reduced WMV infection rate on all three watermelon cultivars, and was
superior to all other treatments. The G. lucidium mixture extract was also superior in reducing the severity of WMV infection. The same
treatment gave a significant increase in chlorophyll content, leaf area and specific activity of the enzyme polyphenol oxidase, in addition to
the increase in crop yield.
