Tolerant crops increase growers’ yields but promote selfishness: how the epidemiology of disease resistant and tolerant varieties affect grower behaviour

2022-06-16

Abstract excerpt

1 <h4>Summary</h4> Disease management often involves genetically improved crops. Resistant varieties are less susceptible, and so less likely to act as reservoirs of inoculum. Tolerant varieties can be highly susceptible, but limit yield loss for those who grow them. Population-scale effects of deploying resistant or tolerant varieties have received little consideration from epidemiologists. We examined how toler...
