Hi Ecologgers, I’ve been trying to grow an invasive wetland grass experimentally in our greenhouse, but rhizome cuttings keep dying. I’ve been told a fungal pathogen (perhaps Pythium) could be the culprit. Now I’m interested in whether the pathogen could be a control agent for the invasive grass. Is there a method for isolating and identifying fungal pathogens? I’ve no prior experience with fungi at all. Thanks, [email protected]
