Plasmodiophora brassicae infection threshold - How many resting spores are required for infection of canola (Brassica napus)

K. Zahr, Y. Yang, S. Dijanovic, H. Fu, M. Harding, D. Feindel, J. Feng

This study determines the minimum number of Plasmodiophora brassicae resting spores required to infect canola, finding thresholds as low as 100 spores, lower than previously reported.

Plasmodiophora brassicae in its environment-effects of temperature and light on resting spore survival in soil

K. Zahr, A. Sarkes, Y. Yang, Q. Zhou, D. Feindel, M. Harding, J. Feng

This study investigates how temperature and light affect the survival of Plasmodiophora brassicae resting spores in soil, finding that lower temperatures and burial improve survival while UV light reduces viability.
