INTRODUCTION
Results show no significant difference on detection of Phoma lingam by media or blotters protocols. The qualitative analysis shows a good sensitivity, specificity, repeatability and reproducibility of each method with a better accuracy for malt agar and blotter deep freezer protocols. The participants validated the better capacity of deep freezer to suppress the germination of seeds compared to the toxic herbicide 2,4-D. Two confirmation methods are available to identify the aggressive and non aggressive Phoma lingam isolates.

COMPARATIVE TESTS
Three seed lots (healthy, medium and high infected) were tested for homogeneitiy and validated by qualititive and quantitative analysis (Hampel’s method). 10 participants from France, Germany, United Kingdom, USA, Japan, Netherland, Australia and Israel compared the methods :
Malt agar (5 participants) / Blotters 2,4-D (8 participants) / Blotters Deep freezer (10 participants).
- Compare and judge efficiency and limits of different detection protocols of seed borne disease Phoma stem canker - Determine the optimal conditions to establish a common testing protocol. - Replace the ISTA 2.4-D method by another method (a deep freezer step) in order to stop germination of seeds.
First symptoms can appear after germination on seedling and cause damping off. Different protocols are described in litterature to detect L. maculans on media or blotters. For a better assessment of the pathogen, a step to suppress germination of seeds is used in the blotter test (Mathur and Kongsdal, 2003). Two different techniques exist : the toxic herbicide 2,4-D (ISTA method 7-004) and a deep freezer step (ISF method).
Leptosphaeria maculans (anamorph Phoma Lingam), is a worldwide pathogen causing black leg, canker, and dry rot of Brassicas and other crucifers. This causal agent is present in many regions around the world and responsible of serious economical damages (Fitt et al. 2008). Initial infections are mainly caused by ascospores dispersed from pseudothecia on infected debris (Smith et al. 1988).
