This project will examine the most promising new products identified in the SCEPTRE HortLink project and elsewhere for control of downy mildews on two ornamental crops, and for their crop-safety to a range of woody and herbaceous ornamentals. Simple crop protection programmes, based where possible on ‘low risk’ products and designed to reduce the risk of resistance build-up, will be devised and tested. The HDC factsheet on downy mildew diseases (04/04) will also be updated.
