Scientifically advanced solutions for chestnut ink disease [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014 On the north regions of Portugal and Spain, the Castanea sativa Mill. culture is extremely important. The biggest productivity and yield break occurs due to the ink disease, the causal agent being the oomycete Phytophthora cinnamomi. This oomycete is also responsible for the decline of many other plant species in Europe and worldwide. P.
