This project was a pilot project for an international collaboration on molecular diagnostic tools for potato soil-borne pathogens, undertaken by Australia and research organisations in the UK. The overall aim of this program is to build on previous research on diagnostic tools and to determine if tests to quantify pathogens in soil are useful risk management tools for growers in both countries.
