1st International Symposium on Biological Control of Bacterial Plant Diseases

Following the first successful commercial development in the 1980s of strain K-84 of Agrobacterium radiobacter against crown rot of stone fruit in Australia, extensive work on biocontrol of bacterial diseases on many other host plants has been undertaken. In the case of fire blight, the potential replacement of the antibiotic streptomycin, which is not allowed in most of the European countries, has stimulated research in the field of biological control of this bacterial disease. But also for other bacterial diseases in field and horticultural crops, biocontrol methods are urgently needed. Therefore, with this symposium, a survey on the status of biocontrol measures on the most of the commercial crops should be initiated.
The organizing committee herewith invites all plant pathologists to initiate a broad discussion on all aspects of biological control of bacterial plant diseases. It should include the promotion and the development of environmentally safe control strategies, both current or as a potential future opportunity.

The Institute for Biological Control of the Federal Biological Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry (BBA), together with the University of Darmstadt, will be pleased to welcome as many colleagues from worldwide as possible, and would like to thank in advance all those participants who will contribute and assist to make this first meeting successful and scientifically stimulating.

Hilfe

Die Suche / Erweiterte Suche im idw-Archiv
Verknüpfungen

Sie können Suchbegriffe mit und, oder und / oder nicht verknüpfen, z. B. Philo nicht logie.

Klammern

Verknüpfungen können Sie mit Klammern voneinander trennen, z. B. (Philo nicht logie) oder (Psycho und logie).

Wortgruppen

Zusammenhängende Worte werden als Wortgruppe gesucht, wenn Sie sie in Anführungsstriche setzen, z. B. „Bundesrepublik Deutschland“.

Auswahlkriterien

Die Erweiterte Suche können Sie auch nutzen, ohne Suchbegriffe einzugeben. Sie orientiert sich dann an den Kriterien, die Sie ausgewählt haben (z. B. nach dem Land oder dem Sachgebiet).

Haben Sie in einer Kategorie kein Kriterium ausgewählt, wird die gesamte Kategorie durchsucht (z.B. alle Sachgebiete oder alle Länder).
