Professional Interests

Dr. Andrew Friskop is an Associate Professor and Cereal Crop Extension Plant Pathologist at North Dakota State University. His Extension program focuses on delivering management information on small grain diseases including Fusarium head blight, fungal leaf spots, rusts, root rots and seed borne diseases. His Extension program on corn is centered on Goss’s wilt and leaf blight. Friskop’s research interests include fungicide efficacy, fungicide timing, and assessing integrated management strategies in the field. He is assisted by Jessica Halvorson, Bryan Hansen and Scott Meyer.
