Abstract excerpt
Potebniamyces pyri is the cause of Phacidiopycnis rot of d'Anjou pear, which is grown primarily in Washington and Oregon. To estimate the population structure of P. pyri, 146 single-spore isolates were sampled from five major pear-production areas and scored for variation at eight sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) loci. Significant genetic differentiation was detected among five subpopulations and a...
