The enemy underground: sustainable management of soilborne diseases

DescriptionThe enemy underground: sustainable management of soilborne diseases. Diseases caused by soilborne pathogens can dramatically reduce the yield and quality of intensively grown crops, and the pesticides used to control them can be both economically and environmentally costly. As such, there is significant value in exploring sustainable management methods to counter these diseases. Such research is all the more relevant when considering the importance of these crops to the food industry, the prevalence of these diseases globally, and the difficulty in controlling them. Project: Sustainable management of soilborne diseases of vegetables. Researchers: Professor Richard Falloon, Distinguished Professor Alison Stewart, Dr Kirstin McLean, Dr Matthew Cromey, Dr Soonie Chang, Dr Andy Pitman, Dr Simon Bulman, Dr Ian Horner, Mr Peter Wright, Dr Farhat Shah, Dr Denis Curtin, PhD students Loreto Hernandez, Subha Das, Damian Bienkowski and Rebecca Gau (Switzerland).Corporate AuthorLincoln UniversityPersonR.
