Air-seq: using DNA sequencing to provide early warning of airborne crop disease – Richard Leggett

  • November 9, 2020
  • 1:02 pm

Richard Leggett

Leader of the Technology Algorithms Group, Earlham Institute

“Airborne crop diseases are responsible for devastating loss of yield and over-reliance on pesticides. Current detection regimes often rely on expert identification of the pathogen from plant damage. Together with collaborators, we have developed Air-seq, a new approach that seeks to identify pathogens through sequencing of biological material present in the air.”
Richard Leggett

The Emerging Agri-Tech session at REAP 2020 is kindly sponsored by EIT Food.
