Screening for <i>Alternaria brassicicola</i> resistance in the <i>Brassicaceae</i> : Bio-assay optimization and confocal microscopy insights into the infection process
2016-02-10
Abstract excerpt
Heavy losses incited yearly by Alternaria brassicicola on the vegetable Brassicaceae – have prompted our search for sources of genetic resistance against the pathogen and the resultant disease, dark leaf spot. We optimized several parameters to test the performance of the plants under controlled conditions to this disease, including leaf age and position, inoculum concentration, and incubation temperature. Using...
