Abstract excerpt
Canadian isolates of Leptosphaeria maculans, the causal agent of blackleg of crucifers, were examined for genetic relatedness by the random amplified polymorphic DNA assay. DNA polymorphisms amplified with random decamer primers were used to distinguish three groups of isolates. Group 1 contained all isolates of the virulent pathotype, group 2 contained isolates of the avirulent pathotype from western Canada, and...
