PCR-based specific detection of Ustilaginoidea virens and Ephelis japonica.
2003-09-01
Abstract excerpt
A PCR-based technique for detection of clavicipitaceous pathogens in rice and related grasses was developed. The target pathogens were Ustilaginoidea virens, which causes rice false smut, and Ephelis japonica, which causes rice udbatta disease and black choke in grasses. To design specific primers, a comparison was made on genetic diversity on the rDNA internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS?) and the 5.8S rRNA...
