Histone H3領域を標的としたダイレクトPCR法によるサツマイモ基腐病菌（Diaporthe destruens）の検出法の開発

抄録

Conventional methods to detect the fungus Diaporthe destruens, which causes foot rot of sweet potato, are time-consuming and often inconclusive. Here we designed specific primers for the histone H3 gene of D. destruens to use for direct PCR using conidia for rapid, specific detection of the pathogen.
