Do you like blueberries and are interested in fungicide resistance in Botrytis cinerea? Visit me at poster P-233 to talk about the first study on resistance profiles in Peru's largest production area. See you there! 🌱🫐#PlantHealth2024 The American Phytopathological Society


@xocolatl_vrr This morning, Mariana Prieto Torres wonderfully representing her APS regional division as this year’s winner and, OF COURSE, Colombia 🇨🇴 Seeing Mari’s growth into the wonderful researcher she is today makes me super proud! Borrowing this photo from Lina Quesada! #CienciaCriolla


Very grateful to NC State College of Agriculture and Life Sciences NC State University for creating the amazing platform that is N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative, our collaboration with Lirong Xiang would have not been possible without their support NCSU Entomology & Plant Pathology NC State BAE

Fun was had by all at the industry/extension social at #PlantHealth2024 and everyone in the lab won a raffle prize! Sarah Cochran-Murray Carlos Morales Hunter Collins Kelly J. Avila Mariana Prieto Torres NCSU Entomology & Plant Pathology The American Phytopathological Society

Today is going to be my first time presenting a poster at APS Plant Health. Please come to my poster 132 today at 4:00pm to know about my work about sweetpotato postharvest diseases in the Uganda production system. NC State Veggie Pathology


Recapping my last few days in Memphis for #PlantHealth2024. Grateful for the opportunity to listen to great research talks, share my work, and hang out with my fellow NC State Veggie Pathology grad students! NCSU Entomology & Plant Pathology N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative Mariana Prieto Torres Carlos Morales


This is Geotrichum sour rot, an important postharvest disease of #sweetpotato that we don’t know much about, mostly because we didn’t have a reliable inoculation method until today. Thanks to Kelly J. Avila a new and needed research area for the lab is open 🍠 🤩 N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative APS Postharvest Pathology Committee


Sarah Cochran-Murray may have come up with a semi selective media for Colletotrichum orbiculare of cucurbits. Her isolates are looking beautiful! 🤩 #Anthracnose Cucurbit Coordinated Agricultural Project N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative NCSU Entomology & Plant Pathology


Check out this story on one of the awesome projects we’ve been working on!🌱🤖 NC State Veggie Pathology NCSU Entomology & Plant Pathology N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative
