The aim of the Institute of Phytopathology of Georgia (IPG) is to provide research, consultancy and expert diagnostic services for plant disease control, working with partners, academics and collaborators.

IPG’s research aims to develop ecologically safe disease control by accurate diagnosis, testing and recommending crop management practices.

Improving these researches by using modern mo-lecular biology methods will develop a platform for food safety and biosecurity for the country.

The Institute of Phytopathology of Georgia (for-mer Institute of Plant Immunity) was founded on May 22, 1991 by development from the labo-ratories and expertise of a branch of All-Union Research Institute of Phytopathology which was originally founded in Kobuleti in 1959.

In 1964 the laboratories of phytopathology, bio-logical control, selection and genetics of micro-organisms, herbicides, toxicology and fungicides were established. In 1970 a fi eld station was founded in the village of Tsagveri, Borjomi region.

During Soviet times, the work of the laborato-ries was focused on research of highly virulent and the most damaging fungal pathogens of strategic importance. The branch of All-Union Research Institute of Phytopathology was the fi rst in Georgia to study genetic structure of pathogen populations, as well as testing sources of resis-tance towards highly virulent races and screening fungicides and pesticides.

The environmental conditions of Kobuleti are unique for fi eld trials because of the natural isola-tion from major producing areas of test crops and the especially favourable warm humid growing conditions for plant pathogens.

After the break-up of the USSR the institution was handed over to Georgia and according to government order acquired the status of a re-search institute.

The Institute of Phytopathology of Georgia now operates under the authority of the Ministry of Science and Education of Georgia.

On basis of the memorandums signed in Febru-ary 2010, the Institute also closely cooperates with the Ministry of Agriculture and the National Service of Food Safety, Veterinary and Plant Pro-tection of Georgia.

In 2002 the Institute started its cooperation with the UK-based Food and Environment Research Agency (FERA). Under this collaboration, IPG was provided with the modern equipment for the laboratory of molecular biology, the build-ings were repaired and improved, and the staff received help and training.

IPG successfully collaborates with CIMMYT and ICARDA over the years. The main areas of stud-ies is monitoring of cereal rusts and testing of introduced breeding materials.

On 25-27 September 2008, the Institute of Phytopathol-

ogy with fi nancial support from ISTC and the UK Ministry

of Defence organised the First International Transcaucasus

Conference on Plant Pathology in Tbilisi.

The conference was attended by over 100 delegates from

12 countries, and also representatives from the Ministries of

Agriculture and Education and Science and National Service

for Food Safety, Veterinary and Plant Protection of Georgia.

The conference received mass media attention.

The aim of the conference was to encourage collaboration

to enhance sustainable agricultural production in the Cauca-

sus region. Delegates reported and discussed the situation

of plant diseases and their threat to production in the Cau-

casus region.

First International Transcaucasus

Conference on Plant Pathology

The conference comprised the following sessions:

• Plant disease survey and

epidemiology;

• Quarantine diseases and new

pathogens;

• Diagnostic methods;

• Disease control.

Participants discussed the way

ahead for Georgia to achieve

European standards in Agriculture
