Fishing for Phytophthora

Murdoch University in Western Australia officially launched a "Fishing for Phytophthora" website on 6/5 at the Dieback Information Group meeting. The website is intended to catalogue Phytophthora species found in Western Australia's rivers, streams, dams, and estuaries. Currently over 100 locations are being monitored. Website information includes a project overview, a detailed map with findings noted at each location, an interpretation of the findings, the latest news on the project, and a photo gallery. To access the website, go to: http://www.fishingforphytophthora.murdoch.edu.au/. For more information on the project, contact Daniel Hüberli at D.Huberli@murdoch.edu.au.

And if you are interested in a similar program being developed in Washington, check out our website:
