Plant pathogens as biocontrol agents of Cirsium arvense : an overestimated approach? [PDF]
, 2011 Cirsium arvense is one of the worst weeds in agriculture. As herbicides are not very effective and not accepted by organic farming and special habitats, possible biocontrol agents have been investigated since many decades.

Mycoherbicides: Opportunities for genetic manipulation
Pesticide Science, 1989 AbstractPossibilities of using genetic manipulation to improve the effectiveness of mycoherbicides are discussed. Particular emphasis is given to fungal genes involved in the production of specialised structures essential for colonisation and reproduction in pathogenesis and in regulating pathogen specificity.
