A new hybrid of from Southeast Europe.

During an investigation of rivers in Bulgaria, an isolate of (RLKam2016/61c) was recovered and initially identified as based on internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) sequence data. However, the sequencing of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I () gene revealed high similarity to sp. , and sequencing of other nuclear regions (β-tubulin [] and translation elongation factor 1-alpha []) revealed a significant number of polymorphisms, indicating a possible hybridization event.

Invasive forest pathogens in Europe: Cross-country variation in public awareness but consistency in policy acceptability.

Political action can reduce introductions of diseases caused by invasive forest pathogens (IPs) and public support is important for effective prevention. The public's awareness of IP problems and the acceptability of policies aiming to combat these pathogens were surveyed in nine European countries (N = 3469). Although awareness of specific diseases (e.

IAA production during germination of Orobanche spp. seeds.

Broomrapes (Orobanche spp.) are parasitic plants, whose growth and development fully depend on the nutritional connection established between the parasite and the roots of the respective host plant. Phytohormones are known to play a role in establishing the specific Orobanche-host plant interaction.
