The annual meeting of the working group “Phyobacteriology” in September has, since its start in 1980, become a tradition of its own. The group is comprised of about 50 interested colleagues with practical (plant protection services) and academic and scientific (universities, research institutes) backgrounds. In addition, scientists from various European countries and interns from developing countries regularly participate in our meetings.
