Berkeleyomyces sp. sequencing

The drug-type cannabis plants that motivated our study showed visible root discoloration and tested negative using all available cannabis pathogen tests. The detection of Berkeleyomyces black rot in cannabis, which at the time of these experiments, was not a known cannabis pathogen, highlights the need for continued research to close the knowledge gap that exists between this crop of renewed interest and other cultivated plants.

触发本研究的毒品型大麻（drug-type cannabis）植株出现了可见的根部变色症状，且经所有现有大麻病原体检测方法检测均呈阴性。在大麻植株中检测到伯克利霉黑腐病（Berkeleyomyces black rot）——在本次实验开展之时，该致病菌尚未被认定为大麻的已知病原体——这一发现凸显了持续开展相关研究的必要性，以填补这类重新受到关注的作物与其他栽培作物之间存在的认知空白。
