| Kursets målsætning | |||||||||
| The course will give the students opportunity to obtain hands-on experience in diagnosis of plant diseases and pests.

| The students learn: - how to diagnose - step by step -commonly occurring plant diseases and pests using simple practical methods (including webbased tools). - how to identify pest species from their morphology, host and host symptoms -how to identify pathogenic fungi, bacteria and virus from their pathogen morphology, host and host symptoms - how to describe, characterise and assess damage in the field and how to take a sample for further study. | |||||||||
| Undervisningsform | |||||||||
| The course consists of short theoretical introductions to specific topics and problem-based studies including field collections, identification and diagnosis of plant pests and diseases using keys, manuals and microscopes. Most of the work is carried out in groups of two students supervised by the teachers. The Danish students attending the course will learn English as well as Danish terminology.
