The Hausbeck, Kousik, Quesada, and Smart labs have worked extensively with the oomycete pathogens, <em>Phytophthora capsici<\/em> (root, crown and fruit rots) and <em><i>Pseudoperonospora<\/i>\u00a0cubensis<\/em> (causal agent of downy mildew). They have characterized pathogen populations, developed diagnostic methods , determined disease spread mechanisms and performed spore trapping to provide timely information about movement into production areas, performed fungicide efficacy trials and monitored for fungicide resistance, and developed disease control recommendations. This information is routinely communicated with growers via local, regional and national meetings, field days, social media and extension websites. Similarly, the Wechter, Kousik, McCreight, and Quesada labs have developed diagnostic methods and charted disease occurrence, characterized fungal races, and performed fungicide trials for gummy stem blight (<em>Stagonosporopsis cucurbitacearum<\/em>, <em>S. citrulli<\/em>, <em>S. caricae<\/em>), powdery mildew (<em>Podosphaera xanthii<\/em> and <em>Golovinomyces cichoracearum<\/em>), and <em>Fusarium oxysporum<\/em>\u00a0(<em>F. sp. niveum<\/em>).\u00a0The McCreight lab has collaborated in the establishment of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/powderymildew.ucr.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Melon Powdery Mildew Database<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0Studies of the cucurbit viruses identified as priorities for this project by Ling, McCreight, Wintermantel, and Wessel-Beaver include reports of occurrence, spread, prevalence, and alternate hosts, establishment of detection methods and characterization of strains, and development of management systems for whitefly transmitted viruses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hausbeck lab at Michigan State\u00a0(Midwest) Keinath lab at Clemson University (South) Kousik lab at USDA-ARS in Charleston, SC (South) Smart lab at Cornell University\u00a0(Northeast) Quesada lab at NC State University (Southeast) Wintermantel lab at USDA-ARS, Salinas, CA\u00a0(West) CucCAP Pathology Team The CucCAP team brings a wealth of experience and expertise from multiple regions of the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"parent":44,"menu_order":5,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-fullwidth.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"tags":[497],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51"}],"version-history":[{"count":21,"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14987,"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51\/revisions\/14987"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/44"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/132.236.156.160\/cuccap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
