[APWG] [External Email]FW: Seeking answer to Bipolaris microstegii question

[Marc Imlay]

Hi Matt., Frequently when we have had to give up a battle because none of
the logical approaches have worked,about 1 time in 5 when we have tried a
very wild idea, we have had success. So I suggest we try an approach that
was turned down. Wild Marc.

Hi Marc,

We are no longer working on Bipolaris of stiltgrass since my predecessor
(Dr. Bruckart) determined they had minimal impact and appeared to be
ecotype/genotype dependent (not all stiltgrass populations were
susceptible). Please see the attached manuscript.

 

However, we are currently trying to acquire some novel rusts from China that
appear promising on stiltgrass (not sure if they will infect all US
stiltgrass populations).

 

best,

Matt

Hi there Matt,

 

 

What are the hosts of Bipolaris microstegii, the occasional temporary
biological control of Microstegium vimineum /Japanese Stiltgrass besides
Japanese Stiltgrass itself?

 

There may be potential biological control host of B. microstegii overseas as
well as in USA. Do you have a consultant in your lab in France, etc.?
