Control

soda_20170202

The use of antibiotics is not permitted in Switzerland; moreover, no other medication exists to combat European foul brood. Hives with symptoms must therefore be destroyed in order to limit the outbreak, and the contaminated material must be sanitised. Since prevention is the best cure, early detection is desirable. Numerous studies have been undertaken and documents have been created at the Swiss Bee Research Centre and elsewhere to draw the attention of beekeepers to these problems and inform them about the causes and the control measures to be implemented.

Molekulare Diagnostik Pflanzenpathogene: Entwicklung und Einsatz neuer Diagnosemethoden

The precise identification of agricultural pests is an important basis for successful and sustainable crop protection. Today, modern diagnostic equipment enable reliable molecular species diagnostics in the field. Also, advanced algorithms are available to genetically characterize organisms, enabling to study their origin as well as their distribution histories. In this project, the latest molecular diagnostic methods and technologies are being used for reliable identification and epidemiological inference of harmful and beneficial organisms. This information is an important basis for preventing the introduction of undesirable organisms into Switzerland and for the further development of plant protection strategies.
