Next Generation Sequences to Uncover Fungal Virulence and Fungicide Resistance Mechanisms(s) in the Blue Mold Fungus

Objective

The objective of this agreement is to support ARS research through collaborative efforts that provide high throughput next generation sequencing for Penicillium spp. that cause postharvest decay of apple and pear fruit during storage and for whole genome and transcriptome sequencing of fungicide-resistant strains.
