Reihe: Methods in Molecular Biology

This volume provides a collection of molecular protocols detailing the most common and modern techniques on fusarium wilt. Chapters guide readers through methods on initial isolation, molecular-based identification, genome characterization, generation of mutants, and characterization of interactions with other organisms including host plants.  Written in the format of the highly successful  Methods in Molecular Biology  series, each chapter includes an introduction to the topic, lists necessary materials and reagents, includes tips on troubleshooting and known pitfalls, and step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols.   Authoritative and cutting-edge, Fusarium wilt: Methods and Protocols aims to be a valuable resource for mycologists, plant pathologists, microbiologists, geneticists, and other scientists that have an interest in members of the Fusarium oxysporum species complex or closely related fungi.
