Position of inoculum in the canopy affects the risk of septoria tritici blotch epidemics in winter wheat.
2004-02-01
Abstract excerpt
The spread of septoria leaf blotch in wheat caused by Mycosphaerella graminicola is widely reported to depend on the occurrence of splashy rainfall. Previous studies have also implicated an important effect of canopy architecture on the risk of disease spread. This is because architecture affects the proximity of the yield-forming leaves to inoculum present on older diseased leaves within the crop. This study demo...
