A LAMP at the end of the tunnel : a rapid, field deployable assay for the kauri dieback pathogen, Phytophthora agathidicida

Notes how the root rot causing oomycete, Phytophthora agathidicida, threatens the long-term survival of the iconic New Zealand kauri tree. Describes a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for the detection of P. agathidicida that targets a portion of the mitochondrial apocytochrome b...

Zusammenfassung:Notes how the root rot causing oomycete, Phytophthora agathidicida, threatens the long-term survival of the iconic New Zealand kauri tree. Describes a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for the detection of P. agathidicida that targets a portion of the mitochondrial apocytochrome b coding sequence. Discusses the various ways such an assay can be used in the communities affected.
