Three lineages of &lt;em&gt;P. ramorum&lt;/em&gt; have been described, informally designated EU1, NA1, and NA2, and each lineage is believed to originate from an as yet unknown exotic centre of origin. Preliminary SSR and sequence analysis of isolates from a UK &lt;em&gt;P. ramorum&lt;/em&gt; survey revealed seven isolates with profiles that did not match the previously known lineages. Detailed SSR and multilocus sequence analysis of these isolates are presented, allowing us to assign these isolates to a new &lt;em&gt;P. ramorum&lt;/em&gt; lineage, designated EU2. Although the known geographical origin of these isolates is currently limited to Northern Ireland and western Scotland, the EU2 lineage isolates have been obtained from four different host plants, including Japanese larch. All isolates are of A1 compatibility type, which implies that this finding does not increase the risk of outcrossing with the EU1 lineage isolates already present in the UK. The oldest EU2 strain was isolated in 2007 but no SSR-based intraEU2 lineage genotypic diversity was detected. The combination of these elements points to a recent introduction, despite emergency phytosanitary measures to control introduction and spread. A PCR-RFLP method for the rapid identification of EU2 lineage isolates is presented.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A.

Thus, survival of &lt;em&gt;P. cambivora&lt;/em&gt;, in the absence of suitable hosts, relies mainly on sporangia, zoospores and mycelium. However, inoculum survival in soils or substrates represents a major factor in disease epidemics and is probably dependant on environmental factors. The aim of this article was to study the behaviour of &lt;em&gt;P. cambivora&lt;/em&gt; in a peat-based substrate (PbS) in the absence of a host, under controlled conditions, and by varying the substrate water regimes. Total inoculum in the substrate was quantified by qPCR, using customized rDNA primer sets, whilst zoospores were quantified after elution, and their vitality was determined by a specific staining procedure. Inoculum infectivity was assessed using chestnut root baits. Results indicated that during the initial 48 h after infestation (matric potential, pF 1.2; 70% water content), the inoculum level increased producing microsporangia and mycelium before decreasing, regardless of the water regime applied. The number of free zoospores increased over a period of (maximum) 7 days after substrate inoculation. Vitality of zoospores declined to 45% at day 18, with no statistical differences amongst water regime treatments. Both rDNA and zoospore number increased in flooded samples at day 23, illustrating the vitality of the inoculum. Inoculum was able to infect chestnut root baits up to 45 days at pF 1.2 and 3.5, before and after flooding, but at pF 6.3, only in the absence of flooding. Although based on experiments carried out in microcosms, these results highlight an unexpected resistance of &lt;em&gt;P. cambivora&lt;/em&gt; zoospores to environmental constraints. Furthermore, the infectivity ability of the inoculum to survive in PbS over time even in the absence of the host adds relevance to the risk of movement of soil and substrates associated with plant trading worldwide.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vélez, M.

In the first week, stem-inoculated saplings showed a significant decrease in photosynthesis (A) without alteration of stomatal conductance (gs) or stem-specific hydraulic conductivity (Ks). From the second week on, progressive decreases in A, gs and Ks were observed, concomitantly with development of significant stem lesions. Water use efficiency (WUE) increased in the second week and declined progressively from the third week. Hyphae and resinous materials were observed in tracheids and rays below lesions. Necrosis of parenchyma ray cells and blockage of tracheids torus were observed. Healthy xylem showed no resinous materials or tracheid blockage, but abundant starch in rays, which was absent in altered xylem. The culture filtrate (CF) of the pathogen was shown to induce changes in extracellular pH and conductivity, and increased necrosis in tissues of leaves and stem challenged with CF in vitro. Similar results were obtained in leaf tissues of the inoculated saplings in vivo. CF injection into xylem of saplings induced a decline in A and disturbance of leaf tissue integrity, without altering gs, WUE or Ks. The decrease of A correlated with changes in tissue integrity. A possible mechanism of &lt;em&gt;A. chilensis&lt;/em&gt; decline induced by &lt;em&gt;P. austrocedrae&lt;/em&gt; is discussed.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vercauteren, A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riedel, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maes, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Werres, S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Heungens, K.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Survival of Phytophthora ramorum in Rhododendron root balls and in rootless substrates</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Pathology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">baiting</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">detection</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">latent survival</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sudden oak death</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-3059.2012.02627.x</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blackwell Publishing Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">62</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">166–176</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;This study assesses the survival of &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora ramorum&lt;/em&gt; in the root ball of &lt;em&gt;Rhododendron&lt;/em&gt; container plants as well as in different rootless forest substrates and a horticultural potting medium. Following inoculation of the root balls, the aboveground plant parts stayed symptomless, whilst the pathogen could be recovered with a novel non-destructive baiting assay from the root balls until at least 8&amp;nbsp;months post-inoculation. Plating of surface-sterilized roots and direct microscopic analysis confirmed the presence of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;ramorum&lt;/em&gt; in the roots. &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora ramorum&lt;/em&gt; could also be baited from the root balls of symptomless &lt;em&gt;Rhododendron&lt;/em&gt; plants from commercial nurseries, even 2&amp;nbsp;years after acquisition. Survival of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;ramorum&lt;/em&gt; in rootless media was assessed after burying disks of infected leaf material below the soil surface in columns filled with four different undisturbed forest substrates or a potting medium, and incubated at an outdoor quarantine facility. &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora ramorum&lt;/em&gt; could be recovered at least 33&amp;nbsp;months after burial from all substrates, with a significant increase in recovery after the winter period. These data suggest the possibility for long-term symptomless presence of &lt;em&gt;P.&amp;nbsp;ramorum&lt;/em&gt; in root balls of commercial &lt;em&gt;Rhododendron&lt;/em&gt; plants as well as survival in potting medium and different forest substrates under western European climate conditions. Symptomless presence in root balls can contribute to latent spread of this pathogen between nurseries. The novel baiting test, being non-destructive, simple and applicable to a relatively large number of plants, can offer a valuable tool to test plants for the presence of &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/em&gt; species in root balls.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A.M.

Symptoms included crown thinning and the presence of bleeding lesions on the main roots and lower stem. Incidence of decline was approximately 5%. Samples of necrotic bark tissue were collected, cut into 5 mm long segments, plated on PARPNH, and incubated at 20°C (1). &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/em&gt; isolates were obtained from necrotic tissues of 25% of the sampled declining trees. Colonies were rosaceous on potato dextrose agar (PDA) and homothallic. Papillate, ovoid-to-obpyriform, caducous sporangia (mean 38 × 26.2 μm) were produced in soil extract. Oospores were plerotic (mean diameter of 22 to 32 μm) and antheridia paragynous. Optimum growth temperature was 23 to 25°C, minimum 6 to 8°C and maximum 30 to 33°C. A portion of the internal transcribed spacer sequence has been deposited in the NCBI database (GenBank Accession No. FJ183724). A BLAST search of the NCBI database revealed &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora cactorum&lt;/em&gt;, Accession No. EU194384, as the closest match with 100% sequence similarity. Pathogenicity of two isolates, PFE3 and IFB-CAC 38, collected from distressed beech trees was tested using a soil infestation test (10 beech seedlings per isolate and control) and an under the bark inoculation method (10 twigs per isolate and controls, wounded and noninoculated taken from a declining beech tree) (2). After 2 weeks at 20°C, twigs and seedlings inoculated with each isolate developed extensive necrotic lesions around the inoculation sites and the collar, respectively, and &lt;em&gt;P. cactorum&lt;/em&gt; could be reisolated from all lesions. Controls showed no symptoms. &lt;em&gt;P. cactorum&lt;/em&gt; is widespread in declining beech forests in central Europe (1). In Italy, &lt;em&gt;P. cactorum&lt;/em&gt; occurs in soils of chestnut and oak forests and was isolated from collar and root lesions of declining walnut trees (3). To our knowledge, this is the first report of &lt;em&gt;P. cactorum&lt;/em&gt; being associated with declining beech trees in Italy.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A.M.

Annual precipitation and length of drought season were the main parameters that regulated the presence of &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/em&gt; species in the chestnut stands. Seven species of &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/em&gt; were detected; three of these, &lt;em&gt;P. megasperma&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;P. cryptogea&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;P. syringae&lt;/em&gt; had not been previously reported on sweet chestnut. &lt;em&gt;P. cinnamomi&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;P. cambivora&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;P. citricola&lt;/em&gt; were most frequently isolated. &lt;em&gt;P. cinnamomi&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;P. cambivora&lt;/em&gt; were the species significantly associated with declining trees with symptoms of Ink Disease. &lt;em&gt;P. cinnamomi&lt;/em&gt; required distinct ecological conditions compared to the other species. &lt;em&gt;P. cinnamomi&lt;/em&gt; was never detected in sites characterized by minimum temperatures below 1.4 °C, maximum temperature above 28 °C, or soil pH below 5.4.
