Development of an efficient Tef-1α RNA hairpin structure to efficient management of Lasiodiplodia theobromae and Neofusicoccum parvum

Abstract Lasiodiplodia theobromae and Neofusicoccum parvum are serious worldwide-distributed plant pathogenic fungi with a wide host range in tropical and temperate climates. They cause fruit rot, canker, and dieback of twigs in various woody plants. Protection of pruning wounds using fungicides is...
