Excited to share our latest research looking at fungicide resistance among 21 snow mold isolates from around the US and Norway. In short, some indications of resistance but not widespread, even from sites with long fungicide histories. @Suwell86

Bittersweet night last week as we said goodbye and congrats to @Suwell86 as she moves on to the Jean-Michel Ané lab. Shashi led our snow mold fungicide resistance research, snow mold modeling, and many microbiome projects. Congrats and good luck in your next chapter!

We know that the N fert decreases dollar spot, but we don't know why. Our most recent paper led by @Suwell86 suggests that N influences the microbiome, specifically increasing oxalic acid-degrading bacteria, which leads to reduced disease. Give it a read!

Many of us feel far from energized and elevated with the current state of international travel. We are discouraged, deflated and frustrated. We miss our families abroad and don’t understand why the U.S. still has a senseless vaccine requirement. We are begging for it to end or for someone to give us the logic!
