Potassium Phosphonate Induces Resistance in Sweet Chestnut against Ink Disease Caused by Phytophthora Species [PDF]
Ink disease, caused by Phytophthora spp., represents a serious threat to sweet chestnuts throughout their distribution area. Among the control strategies, new perspectives have been offered by using potassium phosphonate, which indirectly controls ...

Cord blood-derived iNK T cells as a platform for allogeneic CAR T cell therapy [PDF]
CD1d-restricted invariant Natural Killer (iNK) T cells are a suitable candidate for allogeneic Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T cell therapy as they do not cause graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) due to the monomorphic nature of CD1d proteins.

Sensitivity to Copper and Phosphite of Phytophthora Species Associated with Ink Diseases of Chestnut [PDF]
Phytophthora cinnamomi (23 isolates) and P. cambivora (3 isolates), isolated from chestnut showing ink disease symptoms or from soil near dead roots of chestnut trees were tested to copper and phosphite sensitivity.

Diagnosis of ink disease of chestnut by molecular identification of associated phytophthora species [PDF]
For diagnostic proposes of ink disease, chestnut orchards with symptoms of decline or sudden death of trees were sampled by soil baiting techniques and selective agar media (P10VPH). Thirty-six Phytophthora isolates were obtained.

Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing of Glucanase Inhibitor Protein in Phytophthora cinnamomi
Ink disease is considered one of the most significant causes contributing to the decline of chestnut orchards. The reduced yield of Castanea sativa Mill can be attributed to two main species: Phytophthora cinnamomi and Phytophthora cambivora, with the ...

Soil compaction and chestnut ink disease [PDF]
SummaryChestnut ink disease caused by the oomycete Phytophthora cinnamomi, a soil‐borne pathogen of world‐wide distribution, accounts for the majority of disease problems on chestnuts in Portugal, limiting yield in a large number of stands and impeding establishment of trees in new areas.
