Real-time PCR for detection and quantification, and histological characterization of Neonectria ditissima in apple trees
2016-08-01
Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE : We designed a pair of primers from a region of the β-tubulin gene to detect and quantify Neonectria ditissima in wood of some infected apple cultivars, and optimized light microscopy to study fungal-plant interactions. Neone ctria ditissima, the causal pathogen of fruit tree canker, is a sordariomycete fungus that affects apple orchards, especially in north-western Europe. To prevent serious disease...
