The plant nursery industry has become an ideal reservoir for Phytophthora species and other soilborne pathogens. In this context, isolation from tissues soil of ornamental forest plants nurseries in four regions Spain was carried out. A high diversity confirmed. Fourteen phylotypes (P. cactorum, P. cambivora, cinnamomi, citrophthora, crassamura, gonapodyides, hedraiandra, nicotianae, niederhauserii, palmivora, plurivora, pseudocryptogea, sansomeana, sp. tropicalis-like 2) were isolated over...
Abstract Between 2010 and 2015, an extensive survey of Phytophthora diversity was performed across Portugal. Baiting direct isolation tests obtained 48 taxa in 62 70 forest stands (89%) from 148 302 rhizosphere soil samples (49%) 25 29 tree species (86%), bark cankers Alnus lusitanica Fagus sylvatica ; 33 34 rivers streams (97%); 12 13 nurseries (92%) 54 87 root ball (61%) 16 21 (76%). The 799 isolates belonged to 28 known three recently described species; one designated two new non‐hybrid...
The struggling Spanish holm oak woodland situation associated with Phytophthora root rot has been studied for a long time. cinnamomi is considered the main, but not only species responsible decline scenario. This study verifies presence and/or detection of in two areas Spain (southwestern “dehesas” and northeastern woodland) using different isolation approaches. Direct baiting methods declining non-declining trees revealed cambivora, cinnamomi, gonapodyides, megasperma, pseudocryptogea...
The diversity of Phytophthora species in declining Fagaceae forests Europe is increasing the last years. genus Quercus one most extended genera Europe, and Q. ilex dominant tree Spain. introduction soil-borne pathogens, such as modifies microbial community present rhizosphere, has relevant environmental economic consequences. A better understanding spp. associated with proposed this study by using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) six stands located three regions Thirty-seven phylotypes...
Cylindrocarpon-like asexual morphs infect herbaceous and woody plants, mainly in agricultural scenarios, but also forestry systems. The aim of the present study was to characterize a collection isolates recovered from roots broad range forest hosts nurseries showing decline by morphological molecular studies. Between 2009 2012, 17 Spain were surveyed total 103 obtained. Isolates identified based on DNA sequences partial gene regions histone H3 (his3). For new species, internal transcribed...
