Vegetable MD online homepage PDDC home page CUP Herbarium
Vegetable MD Online was developed to provide access to the many Vegetable Disease Fact Sheets produced over the years by Media Services at Cornell. The addition of color photographs enhances the use of these sheets for plant disease diagnosis.
The Clinic is designed to provide plant disease diagnostic services for anyone interested in plant diseases. Our services include analysis of plant material and soil for bacterial, fungal, viral, and nematode pathogens as well as suggesting appropriate control measures when available.

A museum research collection of over 400,000 preserved specimens of plant diseases and fungi. We also hold over 60,000 images of agricultural history, people, plant diseases, and fungi.  Some of our holdings can be searched online. We are the 4th largest fungal herbarium in North America.
