@Toby_Bruce Seen today on Zyatt with @SarahCochrane20 😻 early Fusarium head blight symptoms and my favourite aphid on the same wheat head! Can’t wait to see this field again in couple of weeks time! There are also some mummies around so biocontrol is working!

[Rumiana Ray @RumianaRay]

@Toby_Bruce Pretty 😍

[Rumiana Ray @RumianaRay]

@Alf6659 @zoseppa @wheatpath No pupil, paler centre, irregular lesion borders- most likely to be sharp eyespot

[Rumiana Ray @RumianaRay]

Severe stem- base disease symptoms seen early in wheat this year. Can you recognise eyespot, sharp eyespot or foot rot on these wheat stems?

[Rumiana Ray @RumianaRay]

@zoseppa @wheatpath From left to right: first two stems eyespot by Oculimacula spp. not sure which one; third is sharp eyespot and last is superficial foot rot

I’m looking for a field entomologist, to start ASAP, on an exciting short project on boosting wheat defence against aphids🌱
