Title
Accounting for periods of wetness in displacement of Fusarium pseudograminearum from cereal straw
D.P.S. Lakhesar; D. Backhouse; P. Kristiansen Annals of Applied Biology 2010. doi:10.1111/j.1744-7348.2010.00413.x
Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect Displacement of F. pseudograminearum was higher with short wetting durations (4 h) than with longer ones (10 h) for the same cumulative wetness.
- Mechanism The number of wetting events, rather than their individual durations, determined the rate of displacement.
- Association Rainday-degree heat sums gave good fits to short-term displacement data under natural conditions.
