is the causative agent of Chinese hickory trunk canker, which poses significant threat to the production of Chinese hickory ( Sarg.). Previous studies reported that endophytic-pathogenic phase transition, also referred to as latent infection, plays an important role in the interaction of with various host plants, including Chinese hickory.

Article Synopsis
  • Resistance in RBD is linked to specific mutations (S312T and F511S), which impact the fitness and pathogenicity of the fungi, with resistant strains being slightly more virulent but less vigorous.
  • A new rapid detection method using Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technology focusing on the S312T mutation was developed, allowing detection of prochloraz-resistant fungi in rice seedlings at a low resistance frequency as low as 0.498%. *

Trunk canker poses a major threat to the production of Chinese hickory tree ( Sarg.), which is primarily determined by Botryosphaeriaceae. In our previous work, we identified as the predominant pathogen of this disease.
