I love the thick grass of the Midwest… until I lose the screw to my spore trap in it. Thankful for the random bobby-pin I had in my car to save the day until I can get a new screw. #womeninag
Fall in the UW Fruit Crops Pathology lab usually means 2 things: we had a great time during our annual corn maze trip (the competition was fierce this year!) and there are plenty of rotted fruits to process!

@LeslieHolland_ & I have our first publication in First Look for Plant Disease! Cold-climate #wine#grapes are an interesting and growing industry. Our study lays a foundation in understanding best fungicide management strategies for growers🍇

Read our latest blog post 🌿 Meet Courtney Meeks @fruitpathlady, Plant Pathology Ph.D. Student at @UWMadisonCALS 🍇 Driven and compassionate, Courtney is working towards her vision where plant pathology and the welfare of farmers go hand in hand. https://t.co/mwYaPhpYZM
Grad student, Courtney (@fruitpathlady) in the Holland lab, gave an informative presentation to WI #grape growers at the Growing Wisconsin conference on reduced fungicide programs in cold-climate grapes. More exciting work to come as she pursues her PhD in the lab! @WIFruitNews

"American universities have seen plenty of radicals and revolutionaries come and go over the years, and all of them put together were not nearly so revolutionary as a land-grant university itself on an ordinary weekday....
This season @LeslieHolland_ received a lot of emails and phone calls concerning fruit crops showing symptoms of decline often associated with diseases. It’s worth noting that many of the diagnoses she's offered have been linked to drought stress.

We beat the heat this morning to harvest table grapes at the West Madison Ag Station. The greatest vine produced 31.9lb of grapes🍇 We are amazed with the harvest given the early season damage!
Had a fun time presenting my poster, educating and connecting to the audience, most importantly learning about cool research going on all around the world. Thanks to @plantdisease@badgercropdoc for the platform. #PlantHealth2023
#PlantHealth2023 folks - curious about a re-emerging #phytoplasma disease in cranberry?! Check out Casey Trickle’s talk at 10:30am TODAY in the Pathogen-Vector Interactions Technical Session @plantdisease
Day 1 of #PlantHealth2023 has kicked off with a wonderful breakfast with @plantdisease & other amazing travel award recipients! It’s a blessing to be part of society that is passionate about investing in their students🌱
Love this great @CornellAgriTech article about Gold Lab graduate student Kathleen Kanaley! Kathleen studies how diverse remote sensing data streams can be used to detect and differentiate co-occurring diseases in vineyards 🍇🛰️🥀
