Area of Expertise |
| Extension (75%) is focused on working with
the certified seed potato program in Colorado, disease reduction in
certified seed stocks, and management of seed borne disease and pest
problems. Education about the benefits of using high quality seed
is a priority. Research (25%) is directed toward understanding and
managing various diseases of potatoes under Colorado conditions including,
but not limited to, bacterial ring rot, blackleg and soft rot, powdery
scab, early blight and the viruses, potato leafroll and PVY. Projects
dealing with greenhouse management and tissue culture production as
used in the certification program are also priorities. |
