Didymo Knowledge Sharing

Didymo Samples Database

• www.didymosamplesdb.org.nz

The didymo samples database is an internet based system where partners record all didymo sampling results taken throughout New Zealand. The database includes both negative and positive results, and sample locations that are displayed on a map.

Read only access is available to anyone using the username Didymo and password didymosamples1.

Write access to the database is password protected. Please email didymo@maf.govt.nz to enquire about obtaining a username and password.

Sample Collection and Analysis Protocols

Operational protocols have been developed in association with MAF BNZ's didymo research and surveillance programmes for use by partners in the didymo long-term management programme. The sampling and analysis protocols should be followed to ensure quality assurance of data for the Didymo Samples Database.
