Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation The heteroecious form of C. pini predominated at Landes and more distant sampled sites.
- Observation C. pini populations on peonies were genetically indistinguishable from nearby pine populations.
- Mechanism Peonies were inferred to participate in the C. pini life cycle at the sampled sites.
- Observation Landes C. pini populations differed from more distant French populations.
- Mechanism Peony cultivation amid pine plantations was inferred to multiply heteroecious C. pini inoculum.
- Mechanism Peony cultivation was inferred to increase pine disease pressure.
- Mechanism Peony cultivation was inferred to increase damage severity to pine saplings.
- Recommendation The authors expect removal of peony plots to reduce future disease intensity.
