Dothistroma septosporum and Dothistroma pini, the causal agents of Dothistroma needle blight, are infected by multiple viruses [PDF]
Virus ResearchDothistroma septosporum and Dothistroma pini are severe foliar pathogens of conifers. They infect a broad spectrum of hosts (mainly Pinus spp.), causing chlorosis, defoliation of needles, and eventually the death of pine trees in extreme cases ...
