Evaluation of piler dirt sampling methods for the detection of the potato wart pathogen, Synchytrium endobioticum, in the frame of EUPHRESCO (Project)

Synchytrium endobioticum, the pathogen that causes potato wart disease, is regulated as a quarantine pest in Europe and Canada. This categorisation is based on the resistant resting spores of S. endobioticum, which can survive in the soil for more than 40 years. The project will focus on soil sampling methods to improve the efficiency and sensitivity of detecting resting spores. The focus is on...
