Detection and In-Depth Understanding of Viral, Bacterial and Phytoplasma Diseases in Field Crops

The ‘Virology and Phytoplasmology’ group at Agroscope Changins diagnoses viral, phytoplasma and bacterial diseases of plants in all crops. A national centre of excellence, we identify or anticipate serious epidemic or emerging diseases – often quarantine diseases – with the aim of protecting our crops, within a context of global warming and growing globalisation. To do this, we develop tools and diagnostic methods for work in microbiology, serology, molecular biology and genetics. Diagnosis and the necessary tools – reliable and internationally recognised – are essential for modern, sustainable plant protection, for both the environment and consumers.
