Aspergillus Hull Rot in Almonds with Mohammad Yaghmour

Aspergillus Hull Rot in Almonds with Mohammad Yaghmour

There’s a new hull rot organism in town. Well, it’s not quite new, but it’s been out of town for a while and it’s back. The pathogen is called Aspergillus niger, and we don’t know a lot about it. Mohammad Yaghmour is looking into it, and he chats with Phoebe about the little we know, as well as general best practices for preventing hull rot.
