It's been a very #busyJuly giving talks and going to five universities. Two of these covered the current trends of plant pathology research in the Philippines and biotic stress of agarwood-producing tree species. #PlantPathology #PlantPathologist #WanderingPhytopathologist

Heard of Potexvirus pepini, Potyvirus plumpoxi, Begomovirus solanumdelhiense? In 2021 International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses approved binomial names for viruses. The EPPO Global Database is adopting this change. Acronyms or EPPO codes are still here😉 gd.eppo.int/reporting/arti… #planthealth

Scouting is the best practice to manage grain affected by ear rots and mycotoxins. Before harvest, check several spots across a field. Pull husks back to see the entire ear. If greater than 10 percent are moldy, schedule the field for early harvest. Read more in Extension's
