Phoma glomerataas a Mycoparasite of Powdery Mildew

Raymond F. Sullivan, James F. White

Open full text 75 citations

Abstract

Ampelomyces and Phoma species are frequently confused with each other. Isolates previously attributed to the genus Ampelomyces were shown to be Phoma isolates through studies of their morphology and life cycle and ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer region 1 sequence analysis. Phoma glomerata can colonize and suppress development of powdery mildew on oak and may have utility as a mycoparasitic agent.
