VARIATION IN EXTRAGENIC REPETITIVE DNA SEQUENCES IN PSEUDOMONAS SYRINGAE AND POTENTIAL USE OF MODIFIED REP PRIMERS IN THE IDENTIFICATION OF CLOSELY RELATED ISOLATES

Variation in extragenic repetitive DNA sequences in Pseudomonas syringae and potential use of modified REP primers in the identification of closely related isolates

In this study, Pseudomonas syringe pathovars isolated from olive, tomato and bean were identified by species-specific PCR and their genetic diversity was assessed by repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP)-PCR.Reverse universal primers for REP-PCR were designed by using the bases of A, T, G or C at the positions of 1, 4 and 11 to identify additiona

New sunflower hybrids tolerant to tribenuron-methyl

The creation of Home Accessories sunflower hybrids tolerant to tribenuron-methyl enabled the use of wider palette of herbicides to control effectively weeds during the growing season.Moreover, thanks to this tolerance, chemical control of broad-leaves weeds in sunflower, especially Cirsium arvense, is more efficient.The Institute of Field and Veget
