An improved multiplex RT-PCR assay combined with magnetic nanobeads (MNB-RT-PCR) was developed for simultaneous detection of four sweet potato viruses, Sweet potato virus G (SPVG), Sweet potato feathery mottle virus (SPFMV), Sweet potato virus C (SPVC) and Sweet potato chlorotic fleck virus (SPCFV). Four primer pairs specific for each virus were designed and the corresponding PCR products were 169 ...

For a commercially successful cultivar, therefore, at least moderate resistances to important diseases, like yellow rust (YR) and Fusarium head blight (FHB), are necessary. Additionally, in 2013 a regional stem rust (SR) epidemic occurred in Central Germany for the first time ...

Abstract:
... Low density of an unknown root-knot nematode was found on wild olive soils at Cape Spartel near Tanger city in northern Morocco. Morphometry, esterase and malate dehydrogenase electrophoretic phenotypes, as well as ribosomal DNA (rDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences demonstrated that this nematode species differs clearly from other previously described root-knot nematodes. The species is ...

Abstract:
... Guggal (Commiphora wightii (Arnott) Bhandari comb. nov.) is a small tree which is tapped for medicinally important oleo–gum–resin. Naturally infected plant oozes oleo–gum–resin from its trunk and primary branches. However, in either case, the plant dies slowly after oozing. A bacterium was established to be responsible for these phenomena. Four isolates of this bacterium were characterised by bioc ...

Recent surveys have shown the rapid spread of this parasite in agro-ecosytems, often making crop cultivation not viable in the heavily infested areas. Here, we report the identification, molecular cloning, genomic organisation and sequence analysis of ...
