Test panel: Crop research
The crop research test panel has been designed for samples collected from the southern region (south of Dubbo) and western region.
The test panel is a modified version of the panel performed as part of our commercial Predicta B service.
Under the commercial service, most of these tests have been assigned a 'disease risk' category or a 'population density' category. For tests with a disease risk, the relationship between yield loss and pathogen DNA level has been established. This relationship has not been defined for tests reported with a population density category.
