Infectious diseases can cause rapid population declines or species extinctions. Many
pathogens of terrestrial and marine taxa are sensitive to temperature, rainfall, and humidity …

Canola/oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) production in Canada has increased to become a
foundational crop in the Canadian Prairies and an important economic driver of this region …

In this study, a simple generic infection model was developed for predicting infection periods
by fungal foliar pathogens. The model is designed primarily for use in forecasting pathogens …

We performed a meta-analysis to search for a relation between the trophic type and latent
period of fungal pathogens. The pathogen incubation period and the level of resistance of …

Many foliar pathogens require free water to germinate; therefore, disease pressure should
favor plants that are able to repel water. For a suite of 18 sympatric clover species (Trifolium …

This review analyses potential effects of global warming, ie higher mean temperatures, on
the life cycle of five economically important oilseed rape pathogens in Northern Germany …

The transmission ecology of Phytophthora ramorum from bay laurel (Umbellularia
californica) leaves was compared between mixed-evergreen and redwood forest types …

In controlled‐environment experiments, ascospores of both A‐group and B‐group
Leptosphaeria maculans were able to infect leaves of oilseed rape and produce phoma leaf …

Weather data generated for different parts of the UK under five climate change scenarios
(baseline, 2020s low CO 2 emissions, 2020s high emissions, 2050s low emissions, 2050s …

BACKGROUND Light leaf spot, caused by Pyrenopeziza brassicae, is amongst the most
damaging diseases of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus), and currently the sterol 14α …
