Abstract
The establishment of a cooperation program between the Colombian Institute of Agriculture, ICA, and the Colombian Association of Flower Exporters, ASOCOLFLORES, has helped in the design and application of coordinated strategies for both, prevention and eradication of the chrysanthemum White Rust (Puccinia horiana Henn.) in Colombia.
After seven years of cooperative work, two achievements of this program are to be noted: The flower cultivating region of western Colombia remains free from White Rust, and the United States market has been continuously opened for Colombian chrysanthemum.
