A Real-Time PCR Assay for Detection and Quantification of Verticillium dahliae in Spinach Seed

See on Scoop.it – PCR PRIMERS FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF PHYTOPATHOGENIC FUNGI

Verticillium dahliae is a soilborne fungus that causes Verticillium wilt on multiple crops in central coastal California. Although spinach crops grown in this region for fresh and processing commercial production do not display Verticillium wilt symptoms, spinach seeds produced in the United . . . → Read More: A Real-Time PCR Assay for Detection and Quantification of Verticillium dahliae in Spinach Seed

Development of an Assay for Rapid Detection and Quantification of Verticillium dahliae in Soil

See on Scoop.it – PCR PRIMERS FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF PHYTOPATHOGENIC FUNGI

Verticillium dahliae is responsible for Verticillium wilt on a wide range of hosts, including strawberry, on which low soil inoculum densities can cause significant crop loss. Determination of inoculum density is currently done by soil plating but this can take 6 to . . . → Read More: Development of an Assay for Rapid Detection and Quantification of Verticillium dahliae in Soil

Identification of the causal agent of Verticillium wilt of winter oilseed rape in Sweden, V. longisporum

ScienceDirect.com – Mycological Research – Identification of the causal agent of Verticillium wilt of winter oilseed rape in Sweden, V. longisporum.

Morphological characters and genetic relationships were studied among 36 Verticillium isolates derived from different host species. Conidial length varied from 3.5 μm to 12 μm and the DNA content ranged from 0.028 pg . . . → Read More: Identification of the causal agent of Verticillium wilt of winter oilseed rape in Sweden, V. longisporum
