Description

AHDB Horticulture has funded work to develop a test to quantify clubroot resting spores in soils. This test has relevance for Brassica and OSR growers. The test has been trialled with a wide range of UK soil types with no reduction in efficacy. The test shows 92% accuracy in predicting the risk of clubroot development compared to grower observations at harvest. It is now AHDB Horticulture’s intention to make the protocol for this test freely available to all laboratories to take forward and offer as a commercial service to growers in the UK or globally. We will pass the names of laboratories offering this test on to Brassica and OSR growers in the UK via grower meetings. More information is provided in the attachment. Interested parties should contact Cathryn Lambourne to register their interest in the test. Full protocols will be provided in due course.
