Abstract

An oligonucleotide (primer), designed from a conserved region of the multi-allelic b locus of the basidiomycete fungus Ustilago maydis, generated reproducible PCR fingerprints in Phytophthora species. The primer hybridized in a species-specific manner to nucleotide sequences interspersed in the genome of the closely related members of Phytophthora taxonomic group IV. We recommend the use of this PCR procedure as an alternative method for resolving the close taxonomic affinity of some members of the genus Phytophthora.
