Data Sheet 4_Molecular characterization reveals three Neopestalotiopsis species causing st

A research paper details the molecular characterization of fungal pathogens causing disease outbreaks in Spanish strawberry fields. The study corrects a previous misidentification and confirms three Neopestalotiopsis species, providing pathogenicity data from inoculations on three strawberry cultivars. The dataset, authored by Patricia López and last updated in May 2026, is a 56.1 KB PDF file shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Identify Neopestalotiopsis species based on phylogenetic markers (ITS, TEF, TUB) described in the study
• Compare pathogen aggressiveness on different strawberry cultivars ('Rociera FNM', 'Palmeritas', 'Plared 15105') as tested in the research
• Develop molecular diagnostic tools for strawberry diseases using the corrected species identifications provided
• Inform disease management strategies for Spanish strawberry production based on the confirmed pathogen species and their prevalence

Strengths

• Provides corrected species identification for Neopestalotiopsis pathogens affecting Spanish strawberries
• Includes pathogenicity test results on three specific strawberry cultivars
• Uses a multi-locus phylogenetic approach based on three genetic regions

Limitations

• Dataset is a 56.1 KB PDF file, which is a very small research document rather than a structured data collection
• Row count and column-level documentation are absent; data must be manually extracted from the text
• The data is specific to Spanish strawberry fields, which may limit generalizability
