Molecular Screening of Microorganisms Associated with Discolored Wood in Dead European Beech Trees Suffered from Extreme Drought Event Using Next Generation Sequencing

Drought events weaken trees and make them vulnerable to attacks by diverse plant pathogens. Here, we propose a molecular method for fast screening of microorganisms associated with European beech decline after an extreme drought period (2018) in a forest of Thuringia, Germany. We used Illumina seque...
