Real-Time PCR Detection of Phaeomoniella chlamydospora and Phaeoacremonium aleophilum

Phaeomoniella chlamydospora and Phaeoacremonium aleophilum are the two main fungal causal agents of Petri disease and esca. Both diseases cause significant economic losses to viticulturalists. Since no curative control measures are known, proactive defensive measures must be taken. An important aspect of current research is the development of sensitive and time-saving protocols for . . . → Read More: Real-Time PCR Detection of Phaeomoniella chlamydospora and Phaeoacremonium aleophilum

Development of an isolate-specific marker for tracking Phaeomoniella chlamydospora infection in grapevines

Petri disease causes decline of grapevines worldwide. The grapevine endophyte Phaeomoniella chlamydospora is the most important fungal pathogen associated with this disease. Epidemiological studies of this pathogen have been hampered by its common occurrence in the internal tissue of apparently healthy vines. Development of a molecular marker for a single strain would overcome . . . → Read More: Development of an isolate-specific marker for tracking Phaeomoniella chlamydospora infection in grapevines
