We provide a step-by-step protocol for assessing poplar resistance to stem canker pathogens using an in vivo leaf inoculation method. This method is especially suitable for large-scale assessment of Cytospora chrysosperma and Botryosphaeria dothidea canker disease resistance in poplar breeding progeny in China.
Here, we present a protocol to induce the production of adventitious roots (ARs) through the phloem- or epidermis-girdle fungal pathogen inoculation pathway, which is suitable for the study of root biology and the light response-related physiological processes in poplar.
The present protocol describes a method for inducing the dispersal of third-stage juveniles (pre-dauer juveniles, JⅢ) of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus into cryptobiosis through osmotic regulation of potassium chloride (KCl) ions. This method can provide technical support for research on the stress resistance mechanisms of B. xylophilus.
