- plant-pathologist · plausible
“Cryphonectria parasitica hypovirulence via CHV1 dsRNA virus is well-documented biological control, consistent with source quote on transmissible hypovirulence.”
- agroecologist · plausible
“Cryphonectria parasitica causing cankers on Castanea dentata trunk/bark is a canonical, well-documented plant pathology case; hypovirulence biocontrol via dsRNA mycovirus is established literature.”
