In controlled environment experiments, when oilseed rape pods or leaves were inoculated with spore suspensions of Alternaria brassicae, the maximum disease incidence (proportion of pods or leaves diseased) increased as ...

Experiments to investigate the factors affecting the incubation period of dark leaf and pod spot (Alternaria brassicae) on leaves and pods of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) were done in controled environment (constant ...

Simple, theoretical, physical principles and existing experimental data were used to derive an analytical model to describe thr incorporation of plant pathogen spores into splash droplets, Data were obtained from experiments ...

Conidia of Alternaria linicola germinated on both water agar and linseed leaves (detached or attached) over a wide range of temperatures (5-25 degrees C) by producing one to several germ tubes. At temperatures between 10 ...

A series of fourteen replicated plot scale experiments was established between 1991 and 1994 to determine the effect of disease on the yield of winter oilseed rape and the economic threshold and optimum fungicide timings ...
