diversity and pathogenicity of ophiostomatoid fungi associated with tetropium species colonizing picea abies in poland. | the ophiostomatoid fungi associated with cerambycid beetles tetropium spp. (their symbiotic vectors) colonizing norway spruce in poland (six species collected) were isolated. the virulence of representative isolates was evaluated through inoculations using 2-year-old norway spruce seedlings. a total of 1325 isolates (ophiostoma piceae, o. tetropii, o. minus, grosmannia piceiperda, g. cucullata, and five other less frequent taxa) were obtained. tetropium castaneum and t. fuscum were vectors of si ... | 2010 | 20490757 |
