Travel to attend the Fusarium Laboratory Workshop in June, 2012 offered the opportunity to enhance technical skills as a Plant Pathologist, with emphasis on Fusarium identification. The ability to identify Fusarium species will assist in the identification of these fungi isolated from boll rots, which are becoming an increasing problem for the industry. Enhancing Fusarium identification skills will also enable the identification of Fusarium species capable of infecting cottonseed. Some Fusarium spp. produce mycotoxin, a concern for fuzzy cottonseed intended for feed. This knowledge links with current project DAQ1103.
