Microsatellite Genotyping in the Chestnut Blight Fungus Cryphonectria parasitica
2022This chapter describes the use of polymorphic microsatellite (simple sequence repeats, SSR) markers for genotyping isolates of Cryphonectria parasitica, the causal agent of chestnut blight. The SSR presented are particularly useful to characterize the genetic population structure of this invasive fungal pathogen, including invasion history (e.g ...

Intercontinental Population Structure of the Chestnut Blight Fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica
Mycologia, 1996The population structure of the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica was analyzed using restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs).

American Chestnut Sprout Survival With Biological Control of the Chestnut-Blight Fungus Population
Forest Ecology and Management, 2001The American chestnut trees in Connecticut were reduced to understory shrubs by an imported fungus that causes lethal cankers. Chestnut blight disease was first reported in the United States in 1904, and in Connecticut in 1907. Hypovirulence is a virus disease of the fungus that reduces its virulence enough to allow the defense systems of the trees to ...

Hypovirulence of Chestnut Blight Fungus Conferred by an Infectious Viral cDNA
Science, 1992Strains of the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica that contain viral double-stranded RNAs often exhibit reduced virulence. Such hypovirulent strains act as biocontrol agents by virtue of their ability to convert virulent strains to hypovirulence after anastomosis.

Characterization of an endopolygalacturonase produced by the chestnut blight fungus
Physiological and Molecular Plant Pathology, 1994Extracellular endopolygalacturonase was produced by Cryphonectria parasitica strain Ep 155 (ATCC No. 38755) in culture media amended with 1 % sodium polypectate. Production of the enzyme was stimulated dramatically by 1 % glucose, or 0·25 % yeast extract and 0·75 % malt extract.

Cytological and electrophoretic karyotyping of the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica
Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2009The karyotypes of nine strains including three transformants of the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica were analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and cytology using a fluorescence microscope. Cytology of the mitotic metaphase showed n=9 for both standard strain EP155 and field strain GH2 infected by Cryphonectria hypovirus 3.

Possible role of slugs as vectors of the chestnut blight fungus
European Journal of Forest Pathology, 1984AbstractSlugs (Lchmannia marginata Müller) were observed moving and feeding on chestnut blight cankers in woods. Preliminary laboratory tests support the hypothesis that slugs are important vectors in the natural spreading of the blight, complementary to other physical and biological factors.

Analysis of Mating-Type Genes in the Chestnut Blight Fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica
Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2001In nature, the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, has a mixed mating system; i.e., individuals in the same population have the ability to self and outcross. In the laboratory, C. parasitica appears to have a bipolar self-incompatibility system, typical of heterothallic ascomycetes; selfing is rare, although demonstrable.
