Chestnut Blight: Biological Control by Transmissible Hypovirulence in Endothia parasitica

Van Alfen, N. K., Jaynes, R. A., Anagnostakis, S. L., Day, P. R.·1975·Science

Abstract

Hypovirulence in Endothia parasitica is caused by a cytoplasmic determinant that is transferred by hyphal anastomosis in host tissue and in culture. Transmission of this determinant affects the virulence of the fungus to the extent that host invasion by previously virulent isolates is limited.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
