It’s a big learning curve for us to enable to obtain good DNA sequences from single nematodes which we rely on for accurate ID This species is quite wide spread though no damage seen and more likely to be first time IDed in NSW cotton CRDC NSW Agronomy Australian Cotton Science

We never tried root dip for B. rouxiae before, but it appeared root damage in the assay may facilitate vas colonisation of B. rouxiae that we recovered from vas tissue F. oxysporum from non-wilted seedlings enabled to cause wilt disease though missing out some important genes

Morning glory covered in rust set along a fence line with a cotton field as a backdrop. The rust pustules appear on the underside of leaves, often turning the leaves completely orange. Light-colored spots will also appear on the upper surface of the leaf #Rust #Morningglory

Hot of the press! Black root rot pathogen population & its mating types distribution are now available. It took 5yrs to have the pathogen collection across NSW for this spatial and temporal study. Thanks CRDC NSW Agronomy for supports 🙏 link.springer.com/10.1007/s13313…

Did you catch the recent news re CottonInfo? CRDC Cotton Australia & @CSD_cotton are committed to the future of the program + from 2025, the Regional Extension Officers (REOs) will be part of CRDC. We're now recruiting for 4 new REOs. Join our team! crdc.com.au/about-us/emplo…

Amazing #Cotton We set up a pathology assay to destroy the leaf, but after 40 days it regenerates. It’s a failed assay anyway 😂

Both #Fusarium isolates were from Australian cotton, but associated with different symptoms. Hence, they are distinct. Another great work from our Fusarium guru Donald Gardiner link.springer.com/10.1007/s13313…
