Weather-Based Predictive Modeling of Wheat Stripe Rust Infection in Morocco
Predicting infections by Puccinia striiformis f.sp.tritici, with sufficient lead times, helps determine whether fungicide sprays should be applied in order to prevent the risk of wheat stripe rust (WSR) epidemics that might otherwise lead to yield loss.Despite the increasing threat of WSR to wheat production in Morocco, a model for predicting WSR i
