WSU Extension Vegetable Pathologist Dr. Lindsey DuToit will join Laurel
Moulton and the WSU Regional Small Farms Team to present a webinar about
allium diseases that are becoming more widespread in western
Washington. She will focus on identification and integrated pest
management strategies for downy mildew, white rot, and end-of-season
curing for management of bulb rots in garlic and onions. Dr. DuToit is
the Chair of the WSU Department of Plant Pathology, and Alfred
Christianson Distinguished Professor of Vegetable Seed Pathology. Her
research and extension program has focused on the epidemiology and
management of diseases affecting vegetable seed crops in the Pacific
Northwest, particularly small-seeded vegetables such as alliums for more
than 20 years. Photo Source: Bruce Watt, University of Maine
