<DIV>Hi, forest pest mavens!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My most recent blog summarizes & counters a suggestion by a seed /
plant breeder that countries abandon the international phytosanitary system run
under the IPPC and instead rely on applying new genetic techniques to breed
plants resistant to diseases that are spread through international movement of
plants.</DIV>
