Sample volume affects the number of Phytophthora and Phytopythium species detected by soil baiting

Suchana R. Sarker et al.

Summary: More Phytophthora species can be detected from environmental samples using DNA metabarcoding compared to isolation by baiting. Baiting small volumes of non-bulked soil samples resulted in the recovery of more Phytophthora species than baiting large volumes of bulked soils. Metabarcoding of asymptomatic baits detected additional species that were not isolated from lesioned baits. The combination of baiting small samples and metabarcoding of asymptomatic baits yielded the highest number of total species detected.

DNA Metabarcoding and Isolation by Baiting Complement Each Other in Revealing Phytophthora Diversity in Anthropized and Natural Ecosystems

Federico La Spada et al.

Summary: Isolation techniques and DNA sequencing have been used to study Phytophthora communities. This study compared Illumina DNA metabarcoding and leaf baiting isolation techniques to analyze the variability of Phytophthora communities. Both techniques were effective in detecting Phytophthora species, revealing rare or undescribed taxa.

Comparison of Primers for the Detection of Phytophthora (and Other Oomycetes) from Environmental Samples

Treena Burgess et al.

Summary: Oomycetes, including important plant pathogens like Phytophthora, can cause devastating diseases. DNA metabarcoding and mass parallel sequencing have become popular methods for studying these pathogens. However, the choice of primer combinations can greatly influence the results, as some combinations may have low sensitivity or specificity. Using multiple primer combinations, technical replicates, and internal controls is recommended for accurate species identification.

Diversity of Phytophthora Species Detected in Disturbed and Undisturbed British Soils Using High-Throughput Sequencing Targeting ITS rRNA and COI mtDNA Regions

Blanca B. Landa et al.

Summary: Research has shown the presence of various Phytophthora species in different sites in the UK, some of which are significant pathogens threatening forest trees. These species are more commonly found in disturbed sites. Further investigation is needed to determine if these Phytophthora species pose a threat to British trees and to develop appropriate control measures.

PHYTO-THREATS: Addressing Threats to UK Forests and Woodlands from Phytophthora; Identifying Risks of Spread in Trade and Methods for Mitigation

Sarah Green et al.

Summary: The 'Phyto-threats' project in the UK investigated the spread of Phytophthora through nursery and trade practices, identifying 63 different species with risk related to management practices and trade pathways. Global analysis revealed traits that explain spread and host range, while workshops showed increasing stakeholder interest in nursery accreditation. Introduction of best practice in nurseries could bring substantial net benefits to society.

Suchana R. Sarker et al.

Summary: Variations in the timing and abundance of sporangial production and zoospore release between different Phytophthora species may explain why some species are more easily isolated using traditional soil baiting methods.
