- Abstract
- Thirty-three scientists from 22 countries, mostly not only from Europe (Austria, Belgium, France, Finland, Germany, Ireland, The Netherlands, Slovenia, Switzerland, the UK) but also from Peru and Kenya, actively participated as experts in the EAPR workshop on biological control in potato production. Each participant rated both his own expertise in potato and in biological control, on a scale from 1 (very low) to 5 (very high). The mean rate of expertise of the panel was 3.60 (medium to high) for potato expertise and 2.89 (medium) for biological control. Additionally, the experts were asked to (i) identify the major research areas in biological control, (ii) choose major targets to focus on plant pathogenic fungi, bacteria, and viruses as well as nematode and insect pests, (iii) specify the major gaps and needs in potato biological control, and finally (iv) provide indications on possible technological locks for innovation in biological control.
