Plant pathology

Se resumen las actividades de la seccion de Fitopatologia del Programa de Pastos Tropicales del CIAT durante 1982, cuyos objetivos incluyen: (1) evaluar todo el germoplasma por resistencia a enfermedades en las principales localidades de investigacion: (2) detectar, identificar y estudiar enfermedades del germoplasma en evaluacion y (3) evaluar y desarrollar medidas de control de enfermedades de las especies forrajeras promisorias. La evaluacion del germoplasma continuo en Carimagua y Quilichao en Colombia y en el Centro de Pesquisa Agropecuaria do Cerrado (CPAC), Brasil. Se colecto mas informacion sobre la distribucion de 33 enfermedades en 7 ecosistemas. Continuaron los estudios de evaluacion de Colletotrichum gloeosporioides en Stylosanthes guianensis y S. capitata y de Sclerotium rolfsii y Rhizopus spp. en S. capitata. Se estudiaron enfermedades especificas de Desmodium spp. (Synchytrium rolfsii), Leucaena sp. (Pseudomonas fluorescens Biotipo 2), Zornia spp. (Sphaceloma sp. y Corynebacterium flaccumfaciens), Centrosema brasilianum (Pseudomonas sp. y Rhizoctonia solani) y Andropogon gayanus (Rhynchosporium sp.). Se presentan los resultados del control biologico de ninfas y adultos del mion (Zulia colombiana) con el hongo Metarrhizium spp. Se incluyen resultados sobre estudios del efecto de la fertilizacion en la reaccion de forrajes tropicales a plagas y enfermedades, estudios sobre enfermedades y plagas de gramineas y leguminosas nativas e introducidas, estudios sobre clasificacion de enfermedades segun el hospedante y el pais y estudios de patologia de la semilla (Aspergillus spp. en S. capitata).

Talking Plants: Examining the Role of Podcasts in Communicating Plant Pathology Knowledge

Extension programs must constantly evaluate communication plans and platforms to determine if they are worth the investment of time, money, and resources. Podcasts are growing in popularity as a communication platform for education and entertainment. With the VARK model of learning styles and core plant pathology concepts as a guide, researchers evaluated the prevalence and type of plant pathology information in podcasts to better understand how podcasts could benefit Extension plant pathology programs. Using keywords related to plant pathology, researchers searched popular mobile podcast listening applications and evaluated relevant podcast episodes using content analysis methods. Results indicated few podcast shows discuss plant pathology topics. The podcast shows identified, however, covered eight fundamental units of plant pathology knowledge: basics of plant pathology, plant pathology techniques, biology of plant diseases, biology of plant pathogens, management of plant diseases, influence of the environment, other causes of plant disease symptoms, and importance of fungi. Results suggested that podcasts can effectively communicate different types of plant pathology information to audiences. Plant pathology Extension programs can utilize the findings of this study to create new plant pathology podcasts that meet the changing needs of plant pathology Extension clientele. It is worthwhile to further explore the use of podcasts in plant pathology Extension programs
