Hey leaf spot experts! What are the best programs/apps for assessing leaf spot disease severity and/or counting lesions? Any tips for using the Leaf Doctor app to get consistent results? Any issues with severely diseased leaf tissue? Is Assess 2.0 worth it?.. The American Phytopathological Society

#Cercospora leaf spot ratings on #sugarbeet with Ashok Chanda. Interesting results are becoming apparent with DMI fungicides and tank-mix partners. #IYPH2020 @UMNPlantPath Crystal Sugar Co.. Now is not the time to let off on applications. 5 more weeks until the main campaign!

Off to a good start #Day1 #Sugarbeet #harvest20 nice differences between control and treated plots for #Rhizoctonia root rot

Seeing #Fusarium in some #Sugarbeet fields...plants can die randomly with necrosis on leaves (too early to see classic half-leaf chlorosis), discolored vascular tissues when cut.. younger plants can be more susceptible..choose a tolerant variety for your next crop #PlantPathology
