Pleasure to be involved with Cain Hickey's Eastern Viticulture and Enology Forum with a team of plant pathologists. We had a nice chance to talk about early season disease management and had over 325 people registered for the forum. 🍇🍇🍇🍇

Love this graduate student exchange program that MSU-PSM Department was able to do with NC State University #plantpathology. I hope you had a good time May Wang 🦠 🌱

Excited to give a research update at a Michigan Craft Beverage Council meeting at Lansing Brewing Company with my colleagues James DeDecker and Rob Sirrine from MSU Extension and MSU AgBioResearch. Pure Michigan 🍺 🍷 🍇

My manuscript on a novel detection method for the oak wilt pathogen is now available for First Look in Phytopathology® The American Phytopathological Society Thrilled to hear the feedback from homeowners, foresters, arborists, and diagnostic labs for this sampling method National Plant Diagnostic Network apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/10.1094/PH…

Big news!

🪅🪅 I am pleased to share this comprehensive and in-depth review paper on #postharvest diseases affecting various #fruit crops 🥑🍊🥭🍎🍋🍇🍈🫐🍐. It serves as an excellent example of collaborative work among government, private, and academic institutions. All authors are

“The first step in controlling viruses is knowing which ones we have,” said MSU Research’s Timothy Miles. He led #graperesearch by MSU and UC Davis to ID the grapevine viruses infecting MI vineyards to increase awareness of testing & clean plant material. tinyurl.com/3wpsn6mf

Very proud of Drs. Ross Hatlen and Becky Harkness for successfully defending their PhDs in #PlantPathology these last two weeks MSU-PSM Department 🌱 🦠 🍄

Rebecca Harkness et al. conducted a study of 1,080 root samples from 15 California nurseries, finding 22% infected by Phytophthora spp. ImmunoStrips had 30% false positives but helped flag samples for qPCR confirmation. Timothy Miles doi.org/10.1094/PHYTOF…

Happy day! with new #plantpathology Drs. Ross Hatlen, Nancy Sharma and Karan Chahal. Missed you Becky Harkness!!! #smallfruitnhoppathology MSU AgBioResearch MSU-PSM Department MSU CANR 🌱 🦠 🍄 🌳 🍺 🍷 🍇

Feels great to be back in the woods, a place that was part of my PhD journey Timothy Miles . Today helping Ethan, a grad student with Martin Chilvers, as we work on oak wilt. Showing him how to spot fungal mats and tagging more oaks for our summer experiments. #forestpathology
