Seedborne pathogen complex of cotton: morpho-molecular identification and PCR-based detection of Paramyrothecium roridum

Abstract Seedborne pathogens represent a major constraint to cotton production by impairing seed quality, seedling establishment and early crop vigour, while also facilitating long-distance disease dissemination. The extensive cultivation of genetically uniform tetraploid cotton hybrids has made them vulnerable to seed...
