Evidence for a genetically distinct population of Exobasidium sp. causing atypical leaf blight symptoms on lowbush blueberry ( Vaccinium angustifolium Ait.) in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada
The genus Exobasidium includes a number of species that are pathogenic to members of the Ericales, including blueberries ( Vaccinium spp.), and Exobasidium leaf spot is an emerging concern for commercial blueberry production. Atypical Exobasidium leaf spot-like symptoms were observed in wild V. angu...
