BeXyl Work Package leaders share key research achievements and solutions developed over 4 years to fight Xylella fastidiosa across Europe.
In this interview, we caught up with Pierfederico La Notte (CNR-IPSP, Italy) and Josep M. Pagès (ENA), leaders of BeXyl's Work Package 3. They explain how WP3 has turned thermal sanitation into a practical solution for the nursery sector.

How can we stop Xylella fastidiosa before the plants even show symptoms? 🐕✈️🔍
At our final meeting in Bari, we caught up with Antonio Vicent (IVIA, Spain), coordinator of BeXyl's Work Package 2.
In this video, Antonio explains how WP2 is transforming plant health surveillance from reactive to proactive:
Smarter Diagnostics: Detecting the bacterium at the subspecies level directly from plant tissue—skipping the slow process of isolating it in axenic media! 🧬
Eyes in the Sky: Using thermal, hyperspectral, and RGB imaging from airplanes to spot infections before they are visible to the human eye. ✈️📸
Super Sniffers: Deploying trained dogs (canine olfactory detection) to sniff out Xylella in nurseries and at border inspections. 🐕🌱
Data-Driven Policy: Designing advanced statistical models to help authorities, EPPO, and EFSA map and contain outbreaks with maximum efficiency. 📊🇪🇺
Watch the interview to see how cutting-edge technology and early detection are protecting European agriculture! 🎥👇

NIB bo 11. in 12.2. gostil sestanek konzorcija GenomeMET, v okviru katerega oblikujemo meroslovne pristope za podporo diagnostiki raka z molekularnimi metodami.🧬Z nami bodo strokovnjaki s področja meroslovja in raziskav raka iz 16 organizacij.👩⚕️🔬 Več na https://t.co/KRJthcZSDw.
Danes v okolici Nacionalnega inštituta za biologijo že enajstič poteka osrednji dogodek dneva očarljivih rastlin. 1300 otrok kroži med 36 različnimi delavnicami na temo rastlin (https://t.co/pZkIa7qmca). Je živahno in poučno!

"The Nucleic Acid Analysis Working Group discussed DNA testing to detect food adulteration, cancer genomic testing and COVID-19 diagnostics. There was a real buzz in the room that we did not get online."- Jim Huggett, NAWG chair and Science Fellow, NML at LGC.
Danes smo imeli na FITO kratko srečanje ob zaključku monitoringa SARS-CoV-2, na katerem smo se zahvalili našim partnerjem in sodelujočim na tem projektu. 🤝
Poglejte si kako izgleda naš monitoring virusa SARS-CoV-2 v odpadnih vodah in kakšen potecial ima epidemiologija odpadnih voda za spremljanje prisotnosti patogenov in onesnažil. 🫧🦠 https://t.co/WR4wjYx818
Vzorčenje odpadnih vod, omikron in delta, zakaj tam prej opazimo rast in zakaj padec kasneje?
Izjemno zanimiv pogovor z dr. Denisom Kutnjakom @NIB_FITO_SI ! (In ja, #pohvalanadan: z NIB je krasno sodelovati💪!) https://t.co/uvqWHM68Ur
I am really sorry :-(
Due to the extrem rising #SarsCov2#OmicronVariant numbers we have to postpone The Gene Quantification Event #GQ2022 to 20.-24. March 2023
The new webpage, new talks, updated content, etc. ... will come in summer 2022. Just follow #GQ2023
