Ac. Newton et T. Reglinski, AN ENZYME-LINKED-IMMUNOSORBENT-ASSAY FOR QUANTIFYING MILDEW BIOMASS, Zeitschrift fur Pflanzenkrankheiten und Pflanzenschutz, 100(2), 1993, pp. 176-179
An antibody was raised to barley powdery mildew (Erysiphe graminis f.
sp. hordei) and was used to quantify mildew biomass in both living and
senescent leaves in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Biomass per
colony differences attributable to partial resistance components prev
iously determined microscopically were confirmed and a high correlatio
n (0.96) was recorded with visual field scoring.
