- •
Fungal foliar diseases are common components in the seasonal tropical dry forest.
- •
Fungal pathogens should be seen as an essential part of any ecosystem.

Increased canopy openness in forest fragments results in low disease incidence.
- •
Fragmentation may cause extinction of pathogenic species still unknown to science.
