High diversity of vegetative compatibility types in Cryphonectria parasitica in Japan and China.

Abstract excerpt

We found high diversity of vegetative compatibility (vc) types in native populations of the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, in Japan and China; almost every isolate was in a unique vc type. In Japan we found 71 vc types in a sample of 79 isolates pooled from six populations. Within two populations in China, all isolates (n=28 and 11) had unique vc types; we found 15 vc types among 25 isolates in...
