False-negative isolations or absence of lesions may cause mis-diagnosis of diseased plants infected with Phytophthora cinnamomi
TL;DR: Tissue samples from living clonal Eucalyptus marginata were incubated immediately after sampling on agar (NARPH) selective for Phytophthora and the behaviour of the pathogen indicates that it could be present as dormant structures, such as chlamydospores, that need to be induced to germinate.
Reliability of RAPD fingerprinting of three basidiomycete fungi, Laccaria, Hydnangium and Rhizoctonia
TL;DR: Reproducibility of fingerprint patterns in a standard reaction mixture was achieved, suggesting that particular RAPD fingerprints may be reproduced in any laboratory provided the same set of reaction and thermocycle conditions are used.

Phenotypic variation in a clonal lineage of two Phytophthora cinnamomi populations from Western Australia
TL;DR: It is shown, for the first time for P. cinnamomi, that morphological and pathogenic variation between populations of the clonal lineage are very broad and continuous.

Interspecific and intraspecific variation of ectomycorrhizal fungi associated with Eucalyptus ecosystems as revealed by ribosomal DNA PCR-RFLP
TL;DR: High variation in the two genomic regions indicated possible differences in the fungal population structure between two adjacent, differently managed blocks of Eucalyptus marginata forest and raised the possibilities that the ITS sequence is more conserved and the mtLSU more variable than among species of the other 23 families.

Hydrogel bead inocula for the production of ectomycorrhizal eucalypts for plantations
TL;DR: Inocula of eleven eucalypt ectomycorrhizal fungi, produced by the culture of mycelia within hydrogel beads, were found to be of high efficacy as propagules, and can be stored for at least 7 months without losing their capacity as propagateules.
