ABSTRACT:
A DNA sequence is described which is diagnostic of Verticillium dahliae, a problematic plant pathogen. The sequence is found only in V. dahliae and not in closely related Verticillium species. The identification of this diagnostic DNA sequence permits a rapid and sensitive PCR assay to be used to test soil samples for the presence of this pathogen. Competitive PCR may be used to quantify the amount of pathogen present.
