A qPCR assay for the detection of <i>Phytophthora abietivora</i> , an emerging pathogen on fir species cultivated as Christmas trees
2024-09-03
Abstract excerpt
Emerging species of the Phytophthora genus are among the most important threats to global plant biodiversity. For instance, Phytophthora root rot (PRR) of Christmas trees is responsible for 10% of the observed mortality rate in nurseries. Diagnosis of PRR involves isolation followed by morphological and molecular identification of the causal agents. However, these methods are rarely adapted to larger scale exper...
