[Aim] To detect the Phytophthora ramorum on Picea asperata imported from Germany. [Method] Plant DNA was extracted by magnetic bead method. The nested PCR and DNA sequence analysis were carried out to detect the pathogen. [Result] Positive fragments were successfully amplified using specific nested PCR tests. The sequence obtained showed 99% identity to these sequences of P. ramorum deposited in GenBank. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the sequence was clustered in the same clade as P. ramorum. [Conclusion] To our knowledge, this is the first report of P. ramorum carried by P. asperata imported from Germany.
