Main research questionCan we efficiently control harmful soil nematodes or nematodes in agricultural soils by using a more integrated approach (i.e. IPM, integrated pest management) and by aiming for a more general soil health? The field experiments planned in the WAKKERE PLANTEN ("primed plants") project provide the answer.

Plant pest(s): ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’
Management of Flemish scientific collections goes digital.
ILVO, together with Plantentuin Meise and several Flemish universities and research institutes, will align the physical and digital management of its biological and molecular collections with an overarching European policy for management and access.
