Methods for quantifying rain-splash dispersal of Neonectria ditissima conidia in apple canopies
Many microorganisms can be dispersed by rain-splash, whereby spores become suspended in water and are spread via droplets. The resulting dispersal gradient is dependent on several factors including rainfall intensity, the nature of the plant canopy and ...

The interplay between scion genotype, root microbiome, and Neonectria ditissima apple canker [PDF]
Severity of European apple canker caused by Neonectria ditissima can vary between locations and apple genotypes. We investigated how location, cold storage/planting season, and apple scion genotype affect root-associated microbial communities ...

Fungicide Sensitivity in the European Canker Fungus, Neonectria ditissima
Neonectria ditissima is one of the most serious pathogens of apple trees in temperate climatic zones, causing bark canker as well as pre- and post-harvest fruit rots. Control of fruit rots in particular is hampered by uncertainty about the sensitivity to,

Reference genes for gene expression analysis in the fungal pathogen Neonectria ditissima and their use demonstrating expression up-regulation of candidate virulence genes. [PDF]
European canker, caused by the necrotrophic fungal phytopathogen Neonectria ditissima, is one of the most damaging apple diseases worldwide. An understanding of the molecular basis of N. ditissima virulence is currently lacking.

Infection biology as the basis of integrated control of apple canker (Neonectria ditissima) in Northern Europe [PDF]
Background European canker, caused by Neonectria ditissima, is a disease of worldwide importance in apple production, yet knowledge about it is limited, highly regional and sometimes contradictory.
