Abstract
The aspects of molecular genetic techniques in the diagnostics of fungal species composition in the tissues of insects in order to clarify their role in transport of pathogens of major diseases of forest tree species in nurseries is discussed in the paper. It is established that the insects are one of factors of potential transport and distribution of a number of phytopathogenic fungi, in particular of the genera Cladosporium and Alternaria.
