Michael Palmer asked about work on the use of fungi for the control of

I think that others may be able to provide a better update on the current

was fortunate to be able to visit HRI, which is just down the road from
Stratford-upon-Avon, in early 2001 and meet Dr David Chandler and his team
who gave us a fascinating talk about their work.
