Host-pathogen interactions in a segregating population of BC2F2 hybrid Castanea dentata and other chesnut hybirds after exposure to hypovirus-containing and hypvirus-free strains of Cryphonectria parasitica
… of the Chattanooga Chestnut Tree Project (CCTP) breeding program were exposed to three isogenic strains of Cryphonectria parasitica. Strain Ep155 (virus-free) was used to screen the 4- 7 year old chestnut trees for resistance to chestnut blight disease. Two virus-containing, hypovirulent strains, …
