Microsatellite analysis of Icelandic populations of the poplar fungal pathogen Melampsora larici-populina shows evidence of repeated colonization events
2014-07-01
Abstract excerpt
The basidiomycete Melampsora larici-populina causes foliar rust on Populus species from the sections Aigeiros and Tacamahaca, causing reduction in biomass production and economic losses. In the present study, samples of Icelandic M. larici-populina were collected for analysis of genetic diversity and population structure. A total of 439 isolates, collected at 15 locations, and analysed using 22 microsatellite mark...
