Temporal and Spatial Variation in the Population Structure of Spanish Fusarium circinatum Infecting Pine Stands [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Fusarium circinatum is an introduced fungal pathogen extended to the northern regions of Spain that causes Pine Pitch Canker (PPC) disease. In this work, we analyzed the pathogen’s genetic diversity to study changes over time and space since the first ...

Effects of Thermal and Antibiotic Treatments on the Viral Accumulation of FcMV1 in Fusarium circinatum Isolates [PDF]
Journal of FungiMycoviruses are viruses that infect fungi, including plant pathogens. The infection of these mycoviruses is sometimes associated with impaired phenotypes of their fungal hosts, a phenomenon known as hypovirulence.
