It’s a wrap on MU16003 Pest and disease management and research services

Over the last five years, Warwick Gill (University of Tasmania) and Judy Allan have led the levy funded project MU16003 Pest and disease management and research services, creating an exhaustive and detailed body of knowledge for the Australian mushroom industry.

The team have researched and collated information on current and emerging mushroom pests and pathogens, as well as how to recognise, treat and manage them. They have also focussed strongly on communicating their findings through a variety of engaging formats. The legacy is an impressive and invaluable information resource.

Most of the resources created through the project are available via the AGORA website (agora.australianmushrooms.com.au, note that this is password protected), with a few highlights presented here.
