TLDR
Ramets of 200 clones of Cupressus sempervirens were inoculated with 6 isolates of Seiridium cardinale and significant differences were found among isolates, while there were highly significant differences among clones when length and width of canker were assumed as discriminating traits.Abstract:

Sequence and simple-sequence repeat analyses of the fungal pathogen Seiridium cardinale indicate California is the most likely source of the cypress canker epidemic for the Mediterranean region.
TL;DR: A comparative genetic analysis of worldwide populations was performed using sequence analysis of a portion of the ?

'Italico' and 'mediterraneo' : Two Seiridium cardinale canker-resistant cypress cultivars of Cupressus sempervirens
TL;DR: This paper describes 'Italico' and 'Mediterraneo', two C. sempervirens varieties which were patented in 2004 for their resistance to cypress canker and are particularly suitable for ornamental purposes because of their fastigiated columnar habit and the low production of male flowers and cones.

Tissue Culture Application to Forest Pathology and Pest Control
A. M. Diner,D. F. Karnosky +1 more
TL;DR: Tissue culture methodologies for studies of pathogen physiology, host vs. pathogen interrelationships and disease resistance in forest trees show tremendous potential to circumvent some of the difficult logistical problems of studying disease in vivo.

Platanus × acerifolia genotypes surviving to inoculation with Ceratocystis platani (the agent of canker stain): first screening and molecular characterization
TL;DR: Molecular analyses enabled the identification of the species, its hybrid origin and to assess an evident genetic variability among the accessions, which therefore have to be considered as different genotypes.

‘Le Crete 1’ and ‘Le Crete 2’: two newly patented Seiridium cardinale canker‐resistant cultivars of Cupressus sempervirens
TL;DR: Two new canker-resistant C. sempervirens varieties patented in 2010 are selected through a 13-year assessment of their response to artificial inoculations and growth traits, characterized by a rapid growth and by a columnar and fastigiated habit that confers them a notable ornamental effect.

Cypress canker disease in Italy: biology, control possibilities and genetic improvement for resistance
P. Raddi,A. Panconesi +1 more
TL;DR: The life cycle of Seiridium cardinale, the principal symptoms of the cypress canker disease, the results of chemical control, and the research directed toward genetic improvement of Italian cypress for resistance to the canker are described.
