New method for the early detection of vineyard mildew, powdery mildew and botrytis. May 9, 2013. The Basque Institute for Agricultural Research and Development, Neiker-Tecnalia, has developed a new method for the early detection of the diseases mildew, powdery mildew and botrytis in vines.
Diagnosis is based on signs and history of the herd. A microbiologic milk culture, a somatic cell count (SCC), or an Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay (ELISA) test are used to diagnose infection. However, the microbiological culture is the most reliable source of diagnosis of mastitis of goats. Research data suggest that microbiologic culture of a single milk sample is reliable for detection of causal agent of the infection.
