SERVICE OF ARMILLARIA DETECTION IN THE SOIL


A molecular technique for the detection of Armillaria from soil samples has been optimized in our laboratories. Tests will be performed according to the following guidelines



TREES WITH SYMPTOMS OF DECAY ESTABLISHED OR NEW PLANTATIONS

Sample characteristics: About 1 Kg of soil around the affected plant 20 cm bellow the ground. About 1 Kg of soil collected in different points of the sampled area, from 20 cm in depth (in 1 ha, collect in 100 points in a 10 x 10 m grid pattern)

Fees

Sample results will be sent via regular mail informing whether Armillaria was or wasn't detected in the soil.
