PCR as a tool for the early detection and diagnosis of common bunt in wheat, caused by Tilletia tritici
2002-11-01
Abstract excerpt
A method for the early detection and diagnosis of common bunt, caused by Tilletia tritici has been developed. The technique is based on a nested PCR amplification of DNA from T. tritici in infected plant inflorescence tissue at the stage of internode elongation. Primers amplifying a 212 bp fragment in T. tritici were designed on the basis of sequences in the ITS2 region in the ribosomal RNA genes. Disease diagnosi...
