Journal Article
The value of dried fungal cultures for taxonomic comparisons using PCR and RFLP analysis
Journal ArticleDOI
Nine novel species of Huntiella from southern China with three distinct mating strategies and variable levels of pathogenicity.
FeiFei Liu,GuoQing Li,Jolanda Roux,Irene Barnes,Andrea M. Wilson,Michael J. Wingfield,ShuaiFei Chen +6 more
TL;DR: Pathogenicity tests showed that the nine previously unknown Huntiella species can produce lesions on Eucalyptus seedlings, larger than wounds caused by controls on these plants.
Journal Article
Root and root collar disease of Eucalyptus grandis caused by Pythium splendens
TL;DR: Isolates of P. splendens showed the same or an even higher degree of virulence than PhYlOphlhora cinnamomi, a well-known Eucalyplus root pathogen, on the E grandis clones tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of Ras2 in the growth and pathogenicity of Fusarium circinatum was investigated and it was shown that the Ras2 gene plays an important role in both growth and pathology of the fungus.
Journal ArticleDOI
RAPD-fingerprinting to Identify Eucalyptus grandis Clones
TL;DR: It is concluded that the RAPD technique is suited for the identification of E. grandis clones, and should also be useful in genetic studies.
