Pathotypes and Genetic Diversity of Chinese Collections of Elsinoë fawcettii Causing Citrus Scab

Physical Changes in Satsuma Mandarin Leaf after Infection of Elsinoë fawcettii Causing Citrus Scab Disease.

Citrus scab disease is one of the destructive diseases that reduce the value of fruit for the fresh market. We analyzed the process of symptom development after infection with scab pathogen Elsinoë fawcettii in the susceptible satsuma mandarin leaves to observe the structural modification against pathogen. The cuticle and epidermal cells along with 3-5 layers of mesophyll tissue were degraded 1...

phylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...

Factors Affecting the Production of Elsinochrome Phytotoxin by the Citrus Scab Pathogen, Elsinoë fawcettii

Elsinochrome (ESC), light-activated, nonhost-selective phytotoxin, is produced by many members of the genus Elsinoë and required for full virulence of the fungus. It appears that approaches disrupting the ESC production will likely reduce disease severity caused by Elsinoë pathogens. In this study, the influence of nutritional and environmental factors on ESC biosynthesis by the citrus scab pat...

Genetic Diversity in Citrus

Analysis of the Genetic Diversity in Citrus (Citrus spp.) Species Using SSR Markers

Abstract Determination of genetic diversity level is important in clarifying genetic relationships, characterizing germplasm and the registration of new cultivars. In this study, genetic variation among 56 accessions (G1~G56) of Citrus including several undefined local or native genotypes and some known varieties in Jiroft, Kerman province, Iran was investigated using SSR markers. In total, 12 ...
