Digital droplet PCR quantification and field-scale spatial distribution of Plasmopara viticola oospores in vineyard soil [PDF]
Grapevine downy mildew, caused by the oomycete Plasmopara viticola, is one of the most devastating diseases affecting grapevine worldwide. Primary inoculum (i.e., oospores) plays a decisive role in downy mildew epidemics, but we still know very little ...

A novel method for extraction of high purity and high production Phytophthora sojae oospores [PDF]
Background Phytophthora sojae, a soil-borne oomycete pathogen, has been a yield limiting factor for more than 60 years on soybean. The resurgence of P. sojae (Phytophthora sojae) is primarily ascribed to the durable oospores found in soil and remnants of

Relationship between the oospore dose in the leaf litter above the vineyard ground and primary infections by Plasmopara viticola [PDF]
Plasmopara viticola, the grapevine downy mildew (DM) oomycete, overwinters as oospores in fallen leaves above the vineyard ground. The oospores repeatedly germinate in the following season, causing primary infections on the leaves and clusters.
