Summary: There are over 18.000 ha of irrigated mango in the São Francisco River Valley, and 90% of the fruit produced in this semi-arid region is exported to the european and american markets. With the expansion of the mango areas in the last decade, the intensity of malformation has been increasing, and there are many unresolved questions on the dynamics of the disease in the region, such as the role of the mango bud mite (Aceria mangiferae) or mechanical transmission in the dissemination of the disease. This study aimed to characterize the spatial patterns of mango malformation in commercial orchards, of the brazilian semi-arid.
