EPPO Conference on Quality of Diagnosis and
New Diagnostic Methods for Plant Pests
Noordwijkerhout, NL, 2004-04-19/22
EPPO organized a Conference on 'Quality of Diagnosis and New Diagnostic Methods for Plant Pests' in cooperation with the National Plant Protection Organization of the Netherlands. This Conference follows in the sequence of EPPO Conferences on new methods of diagnosis in plant protection, previously held at Wageningen, Netherlands, in 1985, 1994 and in 2000. This Conference was attended by more than 100 participants from 26 countries. Most participants were experts in the field of diagnosis of plant pests, but representatives of EU organizations and private companies were also present. The Conference highlighted three major topics :
