The probability of flooding is a little lower than the past couple of days, but the environment is still favorable for heavy rain. A flood watch continues for those locations that have the greatest potential to be impacted by heavy rain.

Identifying #laurelwilt symptoms in 🧪💉fungicide-injected #avocado #aguacate 🥑trees can be challenging. While the currently available fungicide injections delay the onset of symptoms, these do not stop the pathogen from infecting the vascular system and spreading throughout

Had the chance to perform diagnostic on young blueberry plants looked drought-stressed: chlorosis, wilting, dieback. But microscopy after 2 days revealed coenocytic hyphae, coralloid mycelium, and swellings. Classic features of #Phytophthora root rot.

I am looking forward to spending the next month in #Taiwan🇹🇼visiting collaborators in #forestry and tropical agriculture/plant pathology. I look forward to seeing laurel wilt 🍄in its native range and learning how tropical fruit crops are managed in Taiwan. I am grateful to the

Sad to see you leave but happy for what’s next for you! #extension Good luck in your new adventure! 🥑🥑🥑🥑

Don't miss the awesome talks on tropical fruit crops! 🥑🍊🥥🍍🥭Including one on #avocado #aguacate #laurelwilt given by Jorge Ronny Díaz Valderrama representing the lab 🤓and one on #pitaya #pitahaya #dragonfruit by Jonathan Crane.

🚨 Laurel wilt has been confirmed in 2 new counties in NC: Beaufort & Greene. Laurel wilt is a fungal disease of laurel family plants (including redbay & sassafras). Carried tree to tree by the redbay ambrosia beetle. See it, report it to N.C. Forest Service! ncagr.gov/divisions/nc-f…

Taiwan day#2. Shared #laurelwilt research with #Taiwan colleagues at the Taiwan Forest Research Institute and then we went collecting samples on native lauraceae. Very exciting to see the disease in its native range 🤓🤓 #foresthealth #planthealth UF/IFAS Plant Pathology Department UF IFAS Tropical Research and Education Center

Still jet lagged 😵‍💫😵‍💫 🥱🥱but enjoying visiting with colleagues in #Taiwan. Today we inspected declining urban trees 🌳 🍄‍🟫and a state of the art greenhouse, part of the forestry research institute and the Taiwan botanical garden, built for the conservation of endangered plant

The Chaverri Mycology Lab is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to contribute to an interdisciplinary project exploring how bat-mediated seed dispersal influences plant microbiomes and pathogen dynamics in tropical ecosystems. See jobs.apsnet.org/job/postdoctor…

Spectacular fruit! 🥭 🍇🍓🍒🍑🍊🍌 #Taiwan 🇹🇼

🌳🧬1/ Forests face escalating threats from pathogens due to climate change & global trade. Yet forest pathology lags behind crop science in understanding microbe-host dynamics at the molecular level. Why? We lack the model systems that revolutionized plant pathology.
