Esmaspäeval, 15. aprillil 2024 algusega kell 10.00, Metsamajas, Kreuzwaldi 5, ruum D143 esineb loenguga doktorant Collins Agho oponent dotsent Isaac Kwesi Abuley (Agroökoloogia osakond, Aarhusi Ülikool, Taani) teemal "Kartuli hilislaiksuse ohjamine - minevik, olevik ja tulevik".

Dots. Isaac Kwesi Abuley on Aarhusi Ülikooli Agroökoloogia osakonna teadur, kes on spetsialiseerunud kultuurtaimede jätkusuutlikule haiguste ohjamisele. Tema uurimistöö hõlmab haiguste diagnoosimist, epidemioloogiat, patogeeni iseloomustamist, haiguste prognoosimist, biotõrjet, integreeritud kahjuritõrjet (IPM), vastupanuvõimet haigustele ja kultuurilisi meetodeid. Kuigi ta on peamiselt keskendunud kartulihaigustele, on ta hiljuti laiendanud oma uurimisvaldkonda nisu, sibula ja suhkrupeedi haigustele.

Projekti "Tippkeskuse AgroCropFuture ning taimekasvatuse ja taimebioloogia õppetooli seminar" kaasrahastab Euroopa Liit.
