In this webinar, recent research on pine wilt disease will be presented by speakers from several Institutions in Portugal (INIAV, ITQB-NOVA, FCiências, Universidade de Évora, Universidade de Coimbra, Ciências ULisboa) and Spain (Centro de Investigacion Forestal de Lourizán). The results from the project PINASTER-PWN will be discussed.
