EPPO European & Mediterranean Plant Protection Org 348d ago

The aim of the EPPO-Q-bank is to support diagnostic activities of phytosanitary organizations. EPPO-Q-bank comprises data of properly documented species and strains present in collections. The entries in EPPO-Q-bank are updated by a team of curators with taxonomic, phytosanitary and diagnostic expertise from national plant protection organizations world-wide and institutes with connections to relevant phytosanitary collections. In this video, the curators present the importance of having access to curated databases and explain how EPPO-Q-bank is curated. Animations were kindly prepared by Ms De Volder.
