Evaluation of epidemiological thresholds and asymptotes with variable plant densities
1992-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Simulations of a simple model of the temporal and spatial dynamics of a hypothetical pathogen demonstrated some limitations of Van der Plank's threshold formula, iR > 1. The threshold value of iR (total potential reproduction per pathogen) that determines whether the density of infected (latent and infectious) leaflets will increase over a pathogen's generation increased as the initial density of susceptible hosts...
