Citrus greening (HLB) has devastated the citrus industries in USA and Brazil. Invasion of the EU is possible, perhaps is even likely. How can spread modelling contribute to epidemiological preparedness? John Ellis's work @plantsci shows how. Preprint at biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Wheat stripe rust was atypical this year, and corn and soybean rusts might be next. Recent mild years don't guarantee this one will be. Monitoring fields is key in 2024 with fungicide costs and low crop prices. Dr. Kemerait is also a great resource.

Some 📸 of #PlantHealth2024 so far, from a great Network Analysis workshop taught by Aaron Plex, Jacobo Robledo, and Karen Garrett. Reconnecting and meeting new people. 😊🌱

Come by poster 232 today at 4:00pm to learn more about our research in fungicide resistance and cucurbit downy mildew! NC State Veggie Pathology NCSU Entomology & Plant Pathology N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative

You are still on time to stop by my poster and see good findings in historical isolates of Septoria brown spot in soybean in Iowa @parbatiJoshi #PlantaHealth2024

What an amazing meeting at #PlantHealth2024 now i am on my next leg of a journey to visit Rodrigo and Kelsey in Kansas State! Thank you for hosting us The American Phytopathological Society in #Memphis

It was great to meet my former advisors Emerson Del Ponte and Carl Bradley at the #PlantHealth2024 in Memphis this week. I’m very grateful for the mentorship and friendship we built over these past years. #plantpathology #epidemiology #Management

Great experience participating at the APS meeting Plant health 2024! 🌱🍄 So glad to have met fascinating researchers in the phytopathology community!! #PlantHealth2024

Great day yesterday with the Iowa Soybean Research Center. Got to learn about very interesting projects and talk about my research on modeling frogeye leaf spot!

Uh, don’t forget to clean your sprayers out between crops or active ingredients. I’ve come across two cases in the past week of sprayer residue banging up a crop. Valor in soybeans and paraquat in corn.
