...While there are some inherent deficiencies in using a modelling approach in order to examine the impact of climate change on pathogens and consequential reductions in food supply, it does at least offer a means of implementing phyto-sanitary control of invading aliens and understanding the earlier appearance of established microbes during the growing season (Gregory et al , 2009 )....
