Abstract
"Collecting plant disease samples Collect recently affected plant tissue representing all stages and aspects of the problem. Healthy or dead plant material is not sufficient for diagnosis but can be useful for comparison. When possible, take samples before applying fungicides or other agrochemicals. These chemicals make it more difficult to identify plant pathogens. Submit entire plants with roots intact (dug, notpulled) if possible. Wrap the root ball so that it does not dry out. If the plant is too large to send, submit a handful of root material packaged in a separate plastic bag with moist (not wet) soil. Shake excess soil from the roots if you wish, but do not wash soil from the sample. Take photographs (digital images) of both healthy and sick plants, including close-ups of symptoms" -- first page
