1. Rust disease continues to threaten California garlic crop

Abstract

In 1998, following the very wet EI Niño weather event, a devastating outbreak of rust disease severely damaged the garlic crop in California. The disease also occurred in 1999 and 2000, indicating that rust may have developed into an annual problem. We identified the pathogen as Puccinia allii. In our study, it infected allium crops such as garlic, onion and chives, but not leek, elephant garlic or shallot. Currently registered materials did not control the disease, but tebuconazole (Folicur) and azoxystrobin (Quadris) provided good protection against garlic rust. Based on our work, a Section 18 emergency exomption for tebuconazole was approved by state pesticide regulators. We tested 34 UC and industry garlic varieties and found that none were completely resistant to garlic rust.

2. Family foster care placement: the child's perspective

Author

Johnson, Penny Ruff, Yoken, Carol, and Voss, Ron

Subjects
Foster home care -- Research, Foster children -- Social aspects
Abstract

Children in foster care largely believe that placement is beneficial to them as they escape the abuse and neglect of their families. However, interviews with 11- to 14-year-old foster children indicate that many are not too clear about the circumstances of the placement. They consider that their situation can be further improved if there is an emphasis on increasing the flow and quality of information among children, biological parents, foster parents and caseworkers.
