From Scalar Summaries to Functional Comparisons: A Framework for Analyzing Plant Disease Progress Curves.

Abstract excerpt

Disease progress curves (DPCs) are central to evaluating disease management strategies, including host plant resistance. Although widely used and often appropriate, scalar summaries such as the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) may obscure meaningful differences in epidemic timing and trajectory shape. Here, I introduce a curve-based framework for comparing plant disease epidemics that treats DPCs as...
