Biological control of root diseases of fruit trees caused by Helicobasidium mompa and Rosellinia necatrix, using the hypovirulence factor.

摘要

In order to control root disease of fruit trees caused by Helicobasidium mompa and Rosellinia necatrix, double stranded RNA (dsRNA) was tested as a biological control method. Isolated dsRNA was identified as H. mompa totivirus 1-17 and R. necatrix anti-rot virus (RarV).
