Abstract:

Most studies of plant disease epidemiology have focused on epidemics in host populations composed of a single genotype. But crop plant diversity can be a useful means of improving the deployment of resistance genes. In a series of experiments with wheat stripe rust and potato late blight, we studied factors...
