Worst frogeye I've seen

Hot off the press! A review article on frogeye leaf spot of soybean was recently published in Tropical Plant Pathology by my former student Jhonatan Paulo Barro , postdoc Danilo Neves, colleague Emerson Del Ponte, and me. Check it out: rdcu.be/deEgZ

Powdery mildew is more abundant in KY wheat fields this year than normal. Read about it in this week's issue of KY Pest News, as well as an update on bacterial streak and Fusarium head blight. kentuckypestnews.wordpress.com/2024/05/14/whe…
