Abstract

A weather-driven model was developed to predict P. viticola population dynamics on grape leaf surfaces during a discrete wet period. To develop this model, the relationships between temperature, wetness duration, zoospore release, and infection were investigated with environmentally controlled experiments, and equations were developed that fitted the experimental data.
