BRUXELLES, 29 APR - Thanks to satellites,
probabilistic models, algorithms, remote sensing and citizen
participation "we have the tools to greatly improve the
effectiveness of surveillance against Xylella fastidiosa",
French researcher Samuel Soubeyrand has said at a major
conference on the plant pathogen.
Scholars from all over the world presented sophisticated Xylella
fastidiosa surveillance and early detection experimental tools
at the final virtual meeting of the XF-ACTORS Project, a
