The influence of environmental conditions on the development of plant diseases.
2023
Experiments have shown that temperature and humidity are the most important of environmental conditions that affect the development of plant diseases. The temperature has been found to determine the seasonal and regional distribution of diseases, as well as intraseasonal variability and geographic distribution. Temperature affects both the pathogen and the host plant; all pathogens have cardinal temperatures for their development. Environmental temperature affects the intensity of disease development, its speed, the duration of the incubation period, and the susceptibility of plants to diseases. Ref. 5.
