Impacts of climate change on phoma stem canker and light leaf spot on UK oilseed rape
(2011)
To illustrate impacts of climate change on plant disease epidemics, an oilseed rape crop growth model, and weather-based disease forecasting models for phoma stem canker (Leptosphaeria maculans) and light leaf spot ...
Arable crop disease control, climate change and food security
(Association of Applied Biologists, 2011)
Global food security is threatened by crop diseases that account for average yield losses of 16%. Climate change is exacerbating threats to food security in much of the world, emphasising the need to increase food production ...
Controlling crop disease to mitigate climate change
(Association of Applied Biologists, 2009)
Controlling crop disease contributes to both food security and climate change mitigation
(2009)
Global food security is threatened by crop diseases that account for average yield losses of 16 per cent, with the greatest losses experienced by subsistence farmers in the developing world. Climate change is exacerbating ...
Patterns of ascospore release in relation to phoma stem canker epidemiology in England (Leptosphaeria maculans) and Poland (Leptosphaeria biglobosa)
(2005-03)
Experiments over five growing seasons at Rothamsted (1998/99-2002/03), four seasons at Boxworth (1998/99, 1999/2000, 2001/02, 2002/03) in England (Leptosphaeria maculans) and three seasons (1998/99-2000/01) at Poznan in ...
New perspectives on the epidemiology and management of phoma stem canker of winter oilseed rape in England
(British Crop Protection Council, 2002)
The epidemiology of phoma stem canker (Leptosphaeria maculans) on winter oilseed rape will be discussed in relation to results of experiments comparing fungicide regimes in southern England. Factors affecting the severity ...
Improving stem canker control in winter oilseed rape by accurate timing of fungicide applications based on disease forecasting
(HGCA, 2001)
This three year project focused on improving strategies for control of canker (Leptosphaeria maculans) in winter oilseed rape. There were three main objectives, which were addressed using historical data and field experiments: ...
