The electrotactic responses of plant pathogenic fungi
Plant roots generate electrical fields in the rhizosphere as a consequence of their ion transport activities. In this thesis it is shown that zoospores of Phytophthora palmivora and Pythium aphanidermatum exhibit electrotaxis in electrical fields ≤ 50 mV/cm, comparable in size to the physiolo...
