Genetic Structure of Populations Virulent on Clubroot Resistant Canola ().

Clubroot, caused by Woronin, is a significant threat to the canola ( L.) industry in Canada. Clubroot resistance has been overcome in more than 200 fields since 2013, representing one of the biggest challenges to sustainable canola production.

Virulence Spectrum of Single-Spore and Field Isolates of Able to Overcome Resistance in Canola ().

Clubroot, caused by Woronin, is an important disease of canola ( L.) that is managed mainly by planting clubroot-resistant (CR) cultivars. Field isolates of can be heterogeneous mixtures of various pathotypes, making assessments of the genetics of host-pathogen interactions challenging.

Bean common bacterial blight: pathogen epiphytic life and effect of irrigation practices.

In recent years, bean common bacterial blight (CBB) caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli (Xap) has caused serious yield losses in several countries. CBB is considered mainly a foliar disease in which symptoms initially appear as small water-soaked spots that then enlarge and become necrotic and usually bordered by a chlorotic zone.
