First record of Colletogloeopsis zuluense comb. nov., causing a stem canker of Eucalyptus in China (Elsevier, 2006-02)Coniothyrium zuluense causes a serious canker disease of Eucalyptus in various parts of the world. Very little is known regarding the taxonomy of this asexual fungus, which was provided with a name based solely on morphological ...

High intercontinental migration rates and population admixture in the sapstain fungus Ophiostoma ips (Blackwell, 2007-01)Ophiostoma ips is a common fungal associate of various conifer-infesting bark beetles in their native ranges and has been introduced into non-native pine plantations in the Southern Hemisphere. In this study, we used 10 ...
-
(Blackwell, 2007-02)During a recent survey of forest tree diseases in Western and Central Bhutan, Sirococcus shoot blight and an associated Sirococcus sp. were found on saplings and mature trees of Eastern Himalayan spruce (Picea spinulosa). ...
-
(Blackwell, 2007-03)The majority of Eucalyptus species are native to Australia, but worldwide there are over 3 million ha of exotic plantations, especially in the tropics and subtropics. Of the numerous known leaf diseases, three species of ...

(Blackwell, 2007-04)The molecular basis of somaclonal variation is not precisely known, but both genetic and epigenetic mechanisms have been proposed. The available evidence points toward the existence of labile portions of the genome that ...
-
(Academy of Science of South Africa, 2007-05)Chrysoporthe cubensis is an important fungal pathogen of Eucalyptus species worldwide. The fungus is also known on many other hosts, all residing in the order Myrtales. Previous studies have suggested that Chr. Cubensis ...

(BioMed Central, 2007-07)BACKGROUND: Termites of the subfamily Macrotermitinae live in a mutualistic symbiosis with basidiomycete fungi of the genus Termitomyces. Here, we explored interaction specificity in fungus-growing termites using samples ...
-
(Elsevier, 2007-11)A recent study to determine the cause of collar and root rot disease outbreaks of cold tolerant Eucalyptus species in South Africa resulted in the isolation of two putative new Phytophthora species. Based on phylogenetic ...
-
(Blackwell, 2008)Using 10 polymorphic DNA-based microsatellite markers, the genetic diversity of eight Mycosphaerella nubilosa populations from Eucalyptus, comprising 497 isolates from five different countries, was studies using a ...
-
(Blackwell, 2008)This study aimed to determine which species of Quambalaria are associated with shoot blight symptoms on Corymbia spp. An additional aim was to determine the presence and impact of quambalaria shoot blight on Eucalyptus ...
-
(Blackwell, 2008)Ten microsatellite markers were developed for the fungus Kirramyces gauchensis, which causes an important stem canker disease of Eucalyptus trees in plantations. Primers for 21 microsatellite regions were designed from ...
-
(Springer, 2008)Mango malformation, caused by Fusarium mangiferae, represents the most important floral disease of mango. The first symptoms of this disease were noticed in the beginning of 2005 in plantations at Sohar in the Sultanate ...

Phytophthora pinifolia sp. nov. associated with a serious needle disease of Pinus radiata in Chile (Blackwell, 2008)During the course of the past three years, a new disease of Pinus radiata, referred to as 'Daño Foliar del Pino' (DFP) has appeared in the Arauco province of Chile and subsequently spread to other areas. The disease is ...

(Springer, 2008)The objectives of this study were to determine the crossing performance of highland maize inbred lines for grain yield, days to silk and plant height; estimate genetic distance (GD) among the inbred lines and in association ...
-
(Blackwell, 2008)Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) crops require a high dosage of Bt toxin to delay development of insect resistance, in particular, when the refuge strategy is applied. This strategy is threatened by plant developmental and ...
-
(Nationaal Herbarium Nederland, 2008)The Botryosphaeriaceae includes several species that are serious canker and leaf pathogens of Pro-teaceae. In the present study, sequence data for the ITS nrDNA region were used in conjunction with morphological observations ...
