LAMP Detection Assays for Boxwood Blight Pathogens: A Comparative Genomics Approach. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 AbstractRapid and accurate molecular diagnostic tools are critical to efforts to minimize the impact and spread of emergent pathogens. The identification of diagnostic markers for novel pathogens presents several challenges, especially in the absence of information about population diversity and where genetic resources are limited.
