The use of rifampicin mutants and ERIC-PCR to track plant colonization and <i>in planta</i> efficacy of bacterial biocontrol agents against <i>Neonectria ditissima</i>
Combination of spontaneous rifampicin resistant bacterial mutants and ERIC-PCR reliably tracked bacteria in planta. Lack of in planta biocontrol activity was not due to absence of endophytic colonization.
