Metagenomic nanopore sequencing versus conventional diagnosis for identification of the dieback pathogens of mango trees

Dieback is one of the most dangerous fungal diseases affecting mango trees. In this study, nanopore metagenome sequencing of the root-soil samples and infected plant tissues was conducted to identify the fungal pathogens present. Soil analysis of the infected mango trees showed the abundance of the...
