Quantitative real-time PCR effectively detects and quantifies colonization of sclerotia of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum by Trichoderma spp
2008-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Some members of the fungal genus Trichoderma are able to colonize and destroy sclerotia, the thick-walled resting structures of the soilborne plant pathogenic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, thus providing a potential means of biological disease control. However, current methods to detect and quantify colonization of sclerotia are labor-intensive, and generally qualitative rather than quantitative in nature. Our...
