Journal ArticleDOI
Geostatistical analysis of Phytophthora epidemic development in commercial bell pepper fields.
TL;DR: Two-dimensional distance class analysis indicated nonrandom spatial patterns of disease incidence in all fields, as well as an increasing level of aggregation of disease over time and greater spread of disease within rows than across rows in most fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial and temporal dynamics of Phytophthora epidemics in commercial bell pepper fields
TL;DR: Epidemics in bell pepper caused by Phytophthora capsici were monitored in three commercial fields to characterize the spatial pattern of disease and to gain a preliminary indication of dispersal mechanisms that may influence spatial disease progress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection and quantification of Phytophthora capsici in soil.
TL;DR: Soil dilution plating without prior sample incubation was the best assay for the quantification of zoospores and sporangia, whereas soil dilutions plating after sample saturation and incubation provided the best recovery of oospores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial dynamics of disease symptom expression during Phytophthora epidemics in bell pepper
TL;DR: Wilting preceded crown symptoms, suggesting that root infection and subsequent colonization to crowns of plants occurred most frequently, and two dimensional distance class analysis characterized spatial dynamics.
