Nice storytelling presentation by students @Amarildo_lsjr @Hiago28967312 reporting results of a 2-year research on the screen of Clonostachys spp. for controlling #potato early blight. Great results indeed! @fapemig @ufvbr

@DenizSBueno @samydana @programapanico Óóó a rebeldia... Kkkk pura verdade!

@GarnicaVinicius Haverá algum biológico nos testes como integrante do manejo?

[GEAFIP @GEAFIP_UFV]

Our #IXSSAF is coming! Dr. Flávio Medeiros will present an interesting talk about the challenges of a graduate student starting in the #biocontrol business.

Right after his talk, Dr. Isabel Padula will share her experience as co-founder of a #biocontrol company.

It's very cool @rodrigobonofre

[Rodrigo Onofre @rodrigobonofre]

@AlefeBorges Yes, Dr. Peres has some biological trials for Botrytis. Here is one where we were testing Clonostachys rosea delivered by bumble bees 🐝 in a commercial 🍓 fruit production field. @BeeVTech

[Álefe Borges @AlefeBorges]

@rodrigobonofre Hello my friend! Are you testing biological products? If not, what are you assaying in the control of gray mold and others diseases?

[UFVPlantPathology @ufvplantpath]

🎉 Excited to announce our new logo! Tough decision for the committee to choose among submissions by our talented students. Congrats @AthusDiego and @thaisafnobrega. Thematic versions forthcoming!

Applications for 2020 opening soon

@PathologyPlant I worked on biocontrol of gray mold in tomatoes with the fungus Clonostachys rosea. Stem infections were effectively reduced when the wounds were previously protected by the antagonist application.
