Use of a green fluorescent protein marker for studying splash dispersal of sporangia of Phytophthora infestans.
2005-08-01
Abstract excerpt
The purpose of this study was to develop a new technique to evaluate the number of spores incorporated in splash droplets by the use of an engineered fluorescent pathogen strain and image analysis hardware and software. The inoculum source consisted of a tomato leaflet infected with a Phytophthora infestans strain transformed with the gene encoding the green fluorescent protein (GFP). Splash droplets formed after...
