Calling for Fusarium bioassay We are excited to announce that we have been funded by Arizona Iceberg Research Council for our Fusarium bio-assay project. We will be doing the trials and standardize the protocols before we offer the service to the public. We, however, need your help with soil samples. Any places you see high pressure of Fusarium, please let us know. We need to collect soil samples. The location of the field will be confidential and will not be shared with anyone. Please contact Bindu Poudel (bpoudel@email.arizona.edu) or Martin Porchas Sr. (mporchas@ag.arizona.edu). We are also collecting Fusarium isolates and preserving for detailed studies on the population genetics.

Final call for fungicide trials at Yuma Ag Center We will be doing fungicide trials at the Yuma Ag Center like every year. If you want any fungicide trials done on Lettuce (Downey mildew, powdery mildew, Sclerotinia), and Spinach downey mildew please contact us by October 11. We are preparing lands for the trials and we need to finalize the number of treatments.
