Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cyclaminis: Identification of specific molecular markers for improved disease prevention

2014

Fusarium oxysporum is a well-known soil-borne and ubiquitous fungus. The species includes a high diversity of saprophytic and pathogenic populations. The phytopathogenic ones are subdivided into formae speciales according to their host specificity. The forma specialis cyclaminis (FoCy) is causing Fusarium wilt only on cyclamen. It causes damages during the entire production line and can raise more than 50 % losses. FoCy is considered as the more destructive pathogen on cyclamen. To achieve a better understanding of the disease and a more efficient and eco-friendly way of control, we aim at finding a specific molecular marker allowing for early detection and quantification of the pathogen an…
