The new EPPO Standard 'PM 7/151 (1) Considerations for the use of high throughput sequencing in plant health diagnostics' is now freely available in the EPPO Bulletin.
Thanks to the Valitest partners and the EPPO Panel on Diagnostics and QA.

In addition to the two articles published in the EPPO Bulletin and in Peer Community Journal, an EPPO Standard was published based on the outputs of WP2 on HTS.

A new output of the #VALITEST project published! Congratulation to the WP2 partners and to all the reviewers! @Be_Phytopath
Wanna use reliably #HTS technologies in your lab for plant pathogens and pests detection ?
All you have ever wanted to know is in our new guidelines:
doi.org/10.24072/pcjournal.1…
->58 co-authors
->For any pest, technology & matrix
->For researchers and diagnosticians

#DYK ? The EPPO Jens-Georg Unger #PlantHealth Fellowship has been established for 10 years (2020-2030).
The deadline to apply for the 2022 #fellowship has been extended to October 16th: lnkd.in/ezT-nBb6
If you are not ready for 2022, start planning for 2023 😉
A book on the critical points to consider for the organisation of Test Performance Studies (#TPS) in microbiology using plant pathogens as a case study has been published by Springer. Another excellent output of the #VALITEST project.

First pest specific EPPO Diagnostic Protocol revised using #VALITEST TPS results! More to come.
Thanks to @NIB_FITO_SI and all TPS participants for the efforts to gather more validation data and increase the reliability of E. amylovora diagnostic tests.
@EPPOnews
The revised EPPO diagnostic Standard ‘PM 7/20 (3) Erwinia amylovora’ is now freely available via online early view in the EPPO Bulletin

Today is International Day of Plant Health.
Thanks to @plantchief for highlighting the contribution of the #VALITEST project in protecting plants during the celebration organized by @IPPC @FAO
#PlantHealthDay
The EPPO Diagnostic Standard PM 7/147 was drafted based on the outputs of the #VALITEST WP3 workpackage and is available in the december issue of the EPPO Bulletin.
The new EPPO Diagnostic Standard ‘PM 7/147 (1) Guidelines for the production of biological reference material’ is now freely available in the EPPO Bulletin.
