Abstract
The invention relates to monoclonal antibodies that react specifically with members of the genus Mycosphaerella and hybridomas that produce such antibodies. The invention is further directed to a method for making a hybridoma cell line that produces monoclonal antibodies that react specifically with at least one species of Mycosphaerella, and a method of obtaining monoclonal antibodies therefrom. Methods and kits for diagnosing Mycosphaerella infections in plant material using such monoclonal antibodies are also within the scope of the invention.
