ABSTRACT

In New Zealand, Phytophthora agathidicida is threatening the survival of kauri, an endemic, culturally and ecologically important tree species. The current method for detection is time-consuming and requires high levels of expertise to assess, thus limiting the analytical sample throughput. Here, we characterized the fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profile of P. agathidicida and compared it with the FAME profile of P. cinnamomi to assess the efficacy of FAME analysis as a diagnostic tool for detecting the pathogen in soil samples.
