Effects of Temperature, Wetness Duration, and Leaflet Age on Infection of Strawberry Foliage by Phomopsis obscurans

Temperature, leaf wetness, and leaflet age effects on infection of strawberry foliage by Phomopsis obscurans were examined in controlled-environment experiments. A mid-season ('Honeoye') and early-season ('Earliglow') cultivar were used. Tested temperatures were 10, 15, 20, 25, 3...

Zusammenfassung:Temperature, leaf wetness, and leaflet age effects on infection of strawberry foliage by Phomopsis obscurans were examined in controlled-environment experiments. A mid-season ('Honeoye') and early-season ('Earliglow') cultivar were used. Tested temperatures were 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35°C, and tested wetness periods were 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 35 h. Leaflets were labeled based on age: 0 to 1, 2 to 6, and 7 to 14 days old. Effects of temperature, wetness duration, and leaflet age on the logit of disease incidence and severity were quantified using a linear mixed model analysis of variance (ANOVA). Age, wetness duration, and their interaction significantly affected these measures of disease. Disease intensity decreased dramatically with increasing leaflet age at the time of infection, indicating a decrease in susceptibility with maturation of foliage, and increased with increasing wetness duration. Temperature only affected disease incidence with 'Honeoye'. A prediction model was developed for leaflet infection based on ANOVA results. Coefficients of determination were approximately 0.8 for both cultivars and measures of disease (incidence and severity), indicating that disease could be described accurately based on environmental conditions and leaflet age
