A rain tower and wind tunnel for studying the dispersal of plant pathogens by rain and wind
(1986-12)
The rain tower/wind tunnel complex at Rothamsted consists of a rain tower (height 11 m, cross-section 1 m2) linked to the upwind end of a wind tunnel (length 12 m, cross-section 1 m2), which may be operated in either an ...
Effects of leaf age, inoculum dose and freezing on development of chocolate spot (Botrytis fabae) lesions on field bean (Vicia faba) leaves
(1986-02)
Botrytis fabae spore suspensions containing c. 1, 10, 102, 103, 104, 105, or 106 spores/ml were used to inoculate 5, 17 or 30-day-old field bean leaves. The percentages of the leaf areas covered by, chocolate spot lesions ...
Epidemiology and control of chocolate spot (Botrytis fabae) on winter field beans (Vicia faba)
(1985-06)
Dispersal of Botrytis fabae spores and the development of chocolate spot lesions were monitored in crops of winter-sown field beans during the 1980/81, 1981/82 and 1982/83 seasons. The greatest numbers of B. fabae spores ...
Role of wind and rain in dispersal of Botrytis fabae conidia
(1985)
Numbers of Botrytis fabae conidia dispersed in plots of winter-sown field beans in which chocolate spot developed were monitored with vertical cylinder and horizontal slide samplers exposed within crops for 3- or 4-day ...
Effect of cellulose xanthate on splash dispersal of Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides spores
(1984)
Cellulose xanthate reduced dispersal of Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides spores from wheat straw by simulated rain.
Dispersal of Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides spores from infected wheat straw
(1983)
Evidence from spore samples collected amongst infected straw spread on fallow ground supported the conclusion that spores of Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides are dispersed mostly by rainsplash. Most spores travelled a ...
Recovery of Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides Spores from Rain-Splash Samples
(1983)
Methods for recovery of P. herpotrichoides spores from rain-splash were tested, initially with pure spore suspensions and then with field samples. Provided surfactant was added and samples were processed immediately, ...
