2010 Late Blight Resource Page

We do not claim to have any expert knowledge about late blight.  That is why we are providing these links to reputable websites that will teach you more about late blight, help you identify it and tell you what to do if you think that you have it.

If you suspect late blight please send a sample of several leaves of the suspect foliage to the UVM diagnostic clinic immediately for confirmation. It is extremely important to get lab diagnosis in order to accurately track the movement of this disease. There may be a $15 charge for this test.  If you live in the Mad River Valley, the Mad River Valley Localvores will pay for your test.

  • Send your samples to: Plant Diagnostic Clinic Jeffords Hall 63 Carrigan Drive, UVM Burlington, VT 05405
