Lettuce

The airborne pathogens we monitor in lettuce crops and what their detection means for your fields.

The presence of oomycetes recorded in our results does not directly correspond to an active disease in the crop. However, their detection serves as a biological indicator: it indicates environmental conditions favorable to the onset or development of diseases such as downy mildew.
