Development of a TaqMan PCR assay for specific detection and quantification of Pectobacterium brasiliense in potato tubers and soil

Muzhinji, Norman; Dube, Joel Prince; De Haan, E.G.; Woodhall, J.W.; Van der Waals, Jacqueline Elise (Springer, 2020-10)

Pectobacterium brasiliense (Pb) is one of the causal agents of soft rot and blackleg diseases and has become a pathogen of economic importance in many potato production regions worldwide. Accurate, sensitive and timely ...
Identification of differentially expressed genes in tolerant and susceptible potato cultivars in response to Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea tuber infection

Lekota, Moleboheng; Muzhinji, Norman; Van der Waals, Jacqueline Elise (Wiley, 2019-08)

Powdery scab caused by Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea (Sss) has recently become one of the most devastating potato diseases of economic importance in South Africa. The use of resistant cultivars has long been ...
Population genetic structure of Rhizoctonia solani AG 3-PT from potatoes in South Africa

Muzhinji, Norman; Woodhall, J.W.; Truter, Mariëtte; Van der Waals, Jacqueline Elise (Elsevier, 2016-05)

Rhizoctonia solani AG 3-PT is an important potato pathogen causing significant yield and quality losses in potato production globally. However, little is known about the levels of genetic diversity and population structure ...
Relative contribution of seed tuber- and soilborne inoculum to potato disease development and changes in the population genetic structure of Rhizoctonia solani AG 3-PT under field conditions in South Africa

Muzhinji, Norman; Woodhall, James W.; Truter, Mariëtte; Van der Waals, Jacqueline Elise (American Phytopathological Society, 2018-01)

Understanding the contribution of seed tuber- and soilborne inocula of Rhizoctonia solani AG 3-PT in causing potato disease epidemics is an important step in implementing effective management strategies for the pathogen. ...
Variation in fungicide sensitivity among Rhizoctonia isolates recovered from potatoes in South Africa

Muzhinji, Norman; Woodhall, J.W.; Truter, Mariëtte; Van der Waals, Jacqueline Elise (American Phytopathological Society, 2018-08)
