Validation of Quantitative and Digital Polymerase Chain Reaction Assays Targeting the Mating Types of Phyllosticta citricarpa, the Causal Agent of Citrus Black Spot

Citrus black spot (CBS) is a disease caused by the ascomycetous fungus Phyllosticta (formerly Guignardia) citricarpa (Botryosphaeriales, Pezizomycotina) currently present in citrus groves in five counties in southwest Florida.
