Article Synopsis
- In 2012, late-summer vascular wilt and root disease symptoms were seen in raspberry plants, initially linked to the pathogen Verticillium dahliae but with diagnostic tests showing inconsistencies, suggesting other pathogens might also be involved.
- A survey conducted in 2013-2014 analyzed samples from both diseased and healthy raspberry fields, revealing that V. dahliae was found in 88% of fields and highlighted the differences in detection methods, with quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) proving more effective than traditional plating methods.
