ASSESSING PHYTOPHTHORA ZOOSPORE ACTIVITY TO ENHANCE DISEASE MANAGEMENT AND PROMOTE ECOLOGICAL SURVEILLANCE OF CHESTNUT INK DISEASE [PDF]
Phytophthora cinnamomi and P. cambivora are soil borne oomycetes that cause Chestnut Ink Disease, a lethal and widespread disease of the European chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.). Soil moisture is a key factor for the onset of Phytophthora root rot epidemics.

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. One isolate per tree and three or two isolates from the soil of the same plant were considered for molecular identification.

Cord blood-derived iNK T cells as a platform for allogeneic CAR T cell therapy
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.

STUDIES ON THE INK-SPOT DISEASE OF POPLAR
A foliage disease of poplar caused by Sclerotinia bifrons (E. & E.) Whetzel has been studied during an important outbreak in the years 1935–1937. The perfect stage of this fungus has been correctly named by Whetzel. The fungus hibernates on the ground in the sclerotial condition, and during the spring apothecia are produced on sclerotia ...
