Various Population Structures of <i>Cryphonectria parasitica</i> in Cáceres (Spain) Determine the Feasibility of the Biological Control of Chestnut Blight with Hypovirulent Strains

Chestnut blight, caused by <i>Cryphonectria parasitica</i>, is a severe disease that may be biologically controlled by the use of hypovirulent strains, but the diversity of the pathogen population affects biocontrol feasibility. Villuercas–Ibores–Jara, the Jerte Valley and La Vera are th...
