The three-level workshop took place from 7 September to 7 October 2021 (two half-day virtual seminars and a practical session in between)  and was hosted by AGES (Vienna).

Its aim was to provide further knowledge on the molecular identification of Bactrocera zonata.

This workshop covered a pest-specific identification method (real time PCR) and the generic DNA barcoding approach.

The topics of the workshop were presented through lectures during the seminars.

In total, staff from 18 NRLs attended the virtual workshop.
