TL;DR: This is the first report describing the construction of GFP-tagged strains belonging to the genus Rosellinia for monitoring white root rot using CLSM and SEM and detailed visualisation of the hyphal network generated by invasion of R. necatrix through the epidermal, cortical and vascular cells, including hyphal anastomosis and branching points.

TL;DR: The sequence analyses showed a rare horizontal gene transfer event of the 2A-like protease domain between a dsRNA (phlegivirus) and a positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus (hypovirus), which greatly expands the diversity of R. necatrix viruses.

TL;DR: White root rot caused by Rosellinia necatrix is one of the most destructive diseases of many woody plants in the temperate regions of the world, particularly in Europe and Asia.

TL;DR: Fluazinam was highly effective in the control of WRR as measured by aerial symptoms, plant height increase, dry weight of secondary roots, percentage isolation of R. necatrix from secondary roots and R.Necatrix populations in soil.

TL;DR: Compatibility between the combined Trichoderma applications and the bacterial strains was observed and these combinations significantly improved the control of R. necatrix during the in vitro experiments.
