摘要: Early detection and management of dwarf mistletoe (Arceuthobium spp.) is currently limited by the inability to rapidly detect infection during 2- 5-year endophyte phase parasite. We describe a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique for detecting Arceuthobium douglasii Engelm. laricis in tissues its hosts, Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco Larix occidentalis Nutt. DNA was extracted from branches 15 infected uninfected P. menziesii. The PCR product amplified using specific primer rbcL gene template fragment 708 pairs bases length. This all that were visibly infected, but not generated any samples known be uninfected. conifer 385 length pure DNA; this as an internal positive control. primers developed me...
