Plant Pathogen Tests

Plant diseases are the abnormal physiological processes that disrupt the plant’s normal structure, growth, function, or other activities. Plant diseases can be classified as non-infectious diseases and infectious plant diseases. Infectious plant diseases are caused by pathogenic organism such as fungus, bacterium, virus and nematode. Those variety of plant diseases and pests contribute to hundreds of billions dollars’ annual losses in food, fiber and ornament production systems.

Creative Diagnostics are designed to detect plant diseases either by identifying the presence of the pathogen (by testing pathogen protein or DNA) or the molecules (proteins) produced by pathogen or the plant during infection. By identifying an infection before it becomes visible, or by tailoring the treatment after differentiating visible infections, those diagnostics can save plants from irreparable damage by pathogens, thus minimizing losses caused by those pests.

With its advanced technology, besides its high-quality diagnostics used for human, Creative Diagnostics also provides diagnostics for plant diseases as follows:
