He taught for 40 years Plant- and Forest Pathology and Mycology at UW Green Bay WI USA. He was a student of JC Walker and James Kuntz who was Rikers student ---- a fine lineage!! I am sending you a photo with his root cutter in Madison WI in 1959 and then also a photo taken prior to his passing on Mar 10 2010. It would be nice if you could upload it. Thank you, Elizabeth Nair Green Bay WI
