Pathogen and gall signature
Does this specimen carry rust, mildew, leaf spot or galls?
- Status
- Specified, unbuilt
- Field
- Empty — nobody is doing this
- Who wants it
- Plant pathology, biosecurity.
Why it matters
A historical plant-disease record nobody has read. Pathogen range shifts have the same climate signal as phenology and none of the attention.
What it needs
Labels from a plant pathologist, not a botanist.
State of the art
Essentially none at scale.
