Molecular techniques provide sensitive, rapid, and quantitative analytical tools that are suitable for detecting and estimating numbers of pathogens. Moreover, these techniques allow differentiation between pathovars and detection of emerging and new variants. The success of PCR in the diagnosis of plant pathogens has been mirrored by the many modifications that have been published supplementing the repertoire of molecular detection tools—even for detecting plant pathogens in aquatic environments. Furthermore, modifications of molecular techniques such as multiplex PCR, DNA array technology, and sequencing of whole genomes in a metagenomic approach provide the capability not only to identify large numbers of different plant pathogens—fungi, bacteria, and viruses—but also to differentiate strains, pathovars, and races, respectively, at the subspecies level in a single assay.
