Mildew samples

Do you have mildew in the wheat variety Robigus?

The UKCPVS is anxious to obtain samples of mildew on the wheat variety Robigus. Robigus currently has a mildew resistance rating of 9. Until now the variety has remained free from mildew. However the picture may be changing.

Sample leaves with live mildew and wrap in  slightly dampened blotting paper. Seal in a polythene bag and send samples by 1st class post on day of sampling to:
