Fungal species identification using DNA: a NCBI and USDA-APHIS collaboration with a focus on Colletotrichum
As reported in the journal Plant Disease, a recent collaboration between National Library of Medicine’s NCBI and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) analyzed public sequence records for the fungal genus Colletotrichum, an important group of fungal plant pathogens that are a significant threat to food production. Colletotrichum species … Continue reading Fungal species identification using DNA: a NCBI and USDA-APHIS collaboration with a focus on Colletotrichum
