Congrats to Omar, Gabriel, & Maria, alumni of @EAPZamorano, who completed visiting scholar programs with LSU AgCenter’s Drs. Boldor, Richards, & Baisakh, respectively. From ag engineering to plant pathology to plant genetics, there are so many opportunities for scholars to learn!

What a delightful evening meeting former and current LSU Dept. of Plant Pathology & Crop Physiology at #PlantHealth2022.

We are looking for a talented and motivated Ph.D. student to work with Rhizoctonia solani AG1-IA on rice and soybean. This research is a joint project between my and Dr. Sara Thomas-Sharme's lab. Please, spread the news!!!

I'm looking for two PhD students for two different projects. One on genetic diversity of fungal plant pathogens on crops and one on evolution and diversity of resistance genes in wild tomato. More info here: phytopathology.uni-kiel.de/en/open-positi… Please retweet.

We published a diagnostic guide on aerial blight caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG1-IA, a common disease in the mid-south and the same pathogen also causes sheath blight on rice. Check it out at: apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/10.1094/PH…

Plant Pathology was present in the LSU AgMagic, engaging the new generatios and providing informationto the public LSU PPCP GSA LSU PPCP

An important part of the process of determining resistance in a crop is the replication of infection. Given the weather changes, it has become difficult to get a consistent environment, and this FLS took about 27 days to develop symptoms (compared to 15 dpi as usual)

We published a factsheet on aerial blight and I have to highlight LSU AgCenter for how this look. Check this out and share it with growers that may need this information. lsuagcenter.com/~/media/system…

Why is Phytophthora so bad in Nebraska this year? I think plants were stressed by early season drought. Defenses were down. Then it rained and got cool. Pathogen spores waiting in the soil woke up and attacked the plants who were too busy gulping water to notice.

Hey everyone, I'm thrilled to share some exciting news🥳 I recently participated in the CORTEVA DELTA Symposium August 2023, and I'm absolutely honored to announce that I've been awarded the Best Poster Session. I am incredible grateful for this opportunity! Corteva Agriscience

Exciting news! We developed a method to induce infection of Phyllachora maydis into corn #tarspot 🌽 and it's now available online. Take a look and find the detailed method: doi.org/10.1186/s13007… MN Invasive Terrestrial Plants & Pests Center @ILplantdoc @EmRogge Jill Check C. D. Cruz @UMNPlantPath

Hi Friends! I’m looking to hire a Ph.D. Student to join my team in the spring or fall semesters of 2024. More information below

It has been an amazing year as a new faculty member at UGA Plant Pathology. I am grateful for the things I have learned and the people I work with. Happy holidays to everyone!🎄 #team #newPI #1yr done ✅

Congratulations Gabriel Muñoz Herrera for the outstanding performance award in the Department of Plant Pathology- Tifton campus. Your contribution to Plant Molecular Diagnostic Lab UGA is greatly appreciated! #proudPI

Today, I was awarded the outstanding performance award after a whole year of being part of the Molecular Diagnostic Lab! I'm so thankful to the people who put their trust in our efforts to help Georgia growers!
