Abstract
The primary aim of the roundtable was to identify priority areas for future research, particularly in the European context; to identify deficiencies in knowledge; and to address the goals and strategies for effective cooperative research. The following key questions arise consistently:
-
Are there special features of the epidemiology of the disease in cool climates ?
-
What is the relative importance of tuber-borne, soil-borne, water-borne infection and weed hosts in different regions ?
-
What are the best sampling and detection strategies and where are the deficiencies in current methodology ?
-
How do we monitor and survey the disease ?
-
How do we contain infested areas ?
-
How do we achieve better communication and collaboration; ideally, a network for exchange of knowledge, information and material ?
