Welcome

On behalf of ISHS and ISPP we invite you to the VIII International symposium on postharvest plant pathology: Plant to Plate - Integrated and innovative approaches for managing postharvest disease across the supply chain.

The symposium will as the title indicates put focus on the holistic nature of postharvest pathology with strong relationships between growing of the product, storage technology and the pathogen being influenced by factors both pre- and postharvest.

The symposium venue will be a hotel situated in the fjord district of western Norway  (link https://www.hotelullensvang.no/ ) in the heart of fruit growing in Norway. The event is scheduled in apple blossom time, May 18 to 22 in 2026. We will facilitate for an interesting event with update of the latest science with a beautiful landscape scenery and a nice conference hotel as frame.

We hope to see you all there
