Abstract
This approach is original because the diversity of weed-colonizing fungi has rarely been studied before. Furthermore, targeting both the ITS1 and ITS2 regions to characterize the fungal communities (i) highlighted the complementarity of these two regions, (ii) revealed a great diversity of weed-colonizing fungi, and (iii) allowed for the identification of potential mycoherbicides, among which were unexpected genera.Keywords
