Subsection: AN APPLICATION OF MOLECULAR GENETIC METHODS FOR SOLVING FUNDAMENTAL AND APPLIED TASKS OF FOREST ENTOMOLOGY AND PHYTOPATHOLOGY
Abstract
The results of the application of molecular genetics methods for the analysis of the plant pathogens present in forest plantations and nurseries of the Russian Federation, including doughnut fungus and annosum root rot are presented. The prospects and benefits of using DNA analysis for early diagnosis of plant diseases without isolation of the pathogen in pure culture, shortening time of analysis, and the possibility of mass screening are discussed.
