Real-time, point-of-care plant disease diagnostics and surveillance for complex fungal pathogens
Our approach
A complete pipeline from sample to strain identification in two days.
Enhancing disease surveillance
This new, innovative, data-driven approach provides near real-time data on the rapidly shifting nature of pathogen population structure and dispersal that can feed directly into early-warning systems and control recommendations.
Designed for complex pathogens
MARPLE can define individual pathogen strains from complex obligate biotrophic pathogens and monitor key genes for mutations such as fungicide target genes.
A truly mobile lab
