TOTM: Lake Sinai Virus (LSV) was first discovered near Lake Sinai in South Dakota. There are several variants of the virus. NAGC test for the two most common variants: 1 and 2. Learn more here: genotypingcenter.com/product/acute-… #NAGCLab #WeHAveATestForThat #LSV2 #LakeSinaiVirus

NAGC will be closed next Thursday and Friday, November 27th and 28th. Regular hours will resume Monday, December 1st. #NAGCLab

TOTMT: Another one of the targets in the ABL2 triplex is Black Queen Cell Virus (BQCV). BQCV is believed to be transmitted by Nosema apis. #NAGCLab #WeHAveATestForThat #BQCV #BlackQueenCellVirus #HoneyBees

TOTM: One of the targets in NAGC’s test of the month ABL2 Honey Bee Triplex is Acute Bee Paralysis Virus. ABPV was first discovered in 1963, accidentally, while researchers were studying a different paralysis causing virus. #NAGCLab #WeHAveATestForThat #ABPV #AcuteBeeParalysis

TOTMT: November's test is a honey bee pathogen triplex - ABL2! The ABL2 triplex detects Acute Bee Paralysis Virus, Black Queen Cell Virus, and Lake Sinai Virus 2. #NAGCLab #WeHaveATestForThat #AcuteBeeParalysisVirus #BlackQueenVellVirus #LakeSinaiVirus2 #HoneyBees

🚨 Test of The Month! 🚨 In 2024, NAGC received 1,260 samples for Wheat Leaf Blotch (WLB-Q) testing, up from 1,130 samples in 2023. Learn how to submit samples on our website: genotypingcenter.com/sample-submiss… #NAGCLab #WeHaveATestForThat #Wheat #LeafSpot

TOTMT: WLB-Q is capable of identifying, differentiating, and quantifying three wheat diseases that reduce test weight and yield: stagonospora glume blotch, speckled leaf spot, and yellow leaf spot. #NAGCLab #WeHaveAtestForThat #Wheat #LeafSpot

NAGC will be at the 2025 BioScience Summit today and tomorrow in Fargo, ND. Stop by our booth (#18) and say hi! #NAGCLab @gfmedc

🚨 Test of The Month Tuesday! 🚨 The official NAGC test of the month for October is Wheat Leaf Blotch (WLB-Q). WLB-Q was released in 2021 by NAGC, and more than 1,200 samples were tested with WLB-Q in its inaugural year. #NAGCLab #WeHaveATestForThat #WheatLeafBlotch #Corn
