I love the thick grass of the Midwest… until I lose the screw to my spore trap in it. Thankful for the random bobby-pin I had in my car to save the day until I can get a new screw. #womeninag

Fall in the UW Fruit Crops Pathology lab usually means 2 things: we had a great time during our annual corn maze trip (the competition was fierce this year!) and there are plenty of rotted fruits to process! @WIFruitNews @SAME_Cran

Grad student, Courtney (@fruitpathlady) in the Holland lab, gave an informative presentation to WI #grape growers at the Growing Wisconsin conference on reduced fungicide programs in cold-climate grapes. More exciting work to come as she pursues her PhD in the lab! @WIFruitNews

"American universities have seen plenty of radicals and revolutionaries come and go over the years, and all of them put together were not nearly so revolutionary as a land-grant university itself on an ordinary weekday....

This season @LeslieHolland_ received a lot of emails and phone calls concerning fruit crops showing symptoms of decline often associated with diseases. It’s worth noting that many of the diagnoses she's offered have been linked to drought stress. fruit.wisc.edu/2023/08/22/pl…

We beat the heat this morning to harvest table grapes at the West Madison Ag Station. The greatest vine produced 31.9lb of grapes🍇 We are amazed with the harvest given the early season damage!

Love this great @CornellAgriTech article about Gold Lab graduate student Kathleen Kanaley! Kathleen studies how diverse remote sensing data streams can be used to detect and differentiate co-occurring diseases in vineyards 🍇🛰️🥀 cals.cornell.edu/news/2023/0…

I’m receiving reports of powdery mildew observations in Wisconsin vineyards. While we do not often associate drought conditions with grape diseases, powdery mildew is an important exception and can be a serious problem during periods of dry weather. fruit.wisc.edu/2023/07/13/wi…
