From Thomas:
Together with Bruno Scanu, Ana Perez-Sierra and Anrea Ficke, I am organising on 20th April 2026 a free-of-charge nursery webinar. We have very renowned speakers presenting Phytophthora infestations of nurseries, their role in spreading the pathogens to horticultural, forestry and restoration plantings and management options to produce pathogen-free plants. Malcom Catlin, director of the Plant Healthy nursery accreditation scheme in the UK, will also give a presentation to introduce this successful nursery scheme which could be a template for the EU and other countries.
