PVent® can be used on field-grown crops, berries, pome and stone fruits, tree nuts, vineyards and more to control a variety of pathogens including Powdery Mildew, Fusarium, Phytophthora and ...
Wageningen University & Research and Agrifirm have cooperated in the development of a new Phytophthora advisory App which has recently been made available to growers on the Akkerweb platform. ...
A research project into the development of potatoes with sustainable resistance against phytophthora via genetic modification with genes from wild potato varieties and good resistance management (DuRPh) has concluded with a scientific publication on the research results. ...
Some phytophthora strains are resistant to fungicides. “We found that some phytophthora strains were resistant to a specific kind of fungicide. ...
These were the findings of an international scientific conference held in Wageningen on 3 September on the conclusion of a study into more durable resistance against Phytophthora through the use of resistance genes from related wild potato species (DuRPh), which was funded by the Dutch government for ten years. ...
” Major threat to crops worldwide Phytophthora infestans, the cause of the world wide devastating potato late blight disease, is infamous for triggering the Irish famine. ...
Potato late blight, which flourishes in cool, damp weather, is caused by the pathogen phytophthora infestans. Scientists sequenced four genes from more than 100 phytophthora infestans samples, plus four closely related species, to tease out the pathogen’s origin. ...
Bangor University’s role in the project is led by John Healey, Professor of Forest Sciences, who commented: “The current outbreaks of Phytophthora ramorum on larch trees and ash dieback disease on ash trees are a major threat to forests and woodlands in Wales, and to the role of trees in the wider landscape. ...
The invasive Philidris ants transmit the fungus-like plant pathogen Phytophthora sp. and so the heaviest yield loss, according to the study. These ants collect pieces of Phytophthora-infected cocoa pods to build protective tents over the mealy bugs, it says. The study says that Philidris ants and their tent materials harbour infectious ...
Additionally, many new plant pathogens are covered in the new label such as soil-borne diseases including Rhizoctonia, Pythium, Phytophthora, and Fusarium. The chemigation section was also expanded to include drip irrigation instructions for controlling soil-borne pathogens and improving plant growth and yield. ...
The research suggests that changes in forest management, which encourage greater and more dense forest cover, are creating environmental conditions that promote disease. The invasive, fungal-like Phytophthora ramorum causes Sudden Oak Death (SOD), which is responsible for destroying tens of thousands of oak trees in the US. ...
