This project investigates the evolution of fungal pathogens causing Dutch elm disease by developing new molecular markers. It combines genomic analysis with studies on pathogen populations to understand their genetic diversity and potential to overcome elm resistance.
RAPD analyses have shown that two inter-fertile fungal species causing the Dutch elm disease (DED) (Ophiostoma ulmi and O. novo-ulmi) coexist in elm stands in Europe, together with their interspecies hybrids.
This constitutes an opportunity for a rapid emergence of new pathogenic races via interspecific gene flow.
However, due to the drawbacks of the RAPD technique, new molecular markers should be designed to investigate the evolution of the pathogen populations.
This project will enable the fel…
