Rimmer: Effect of herbicide and disease resistance on survival and inoculum production of Leptosphaeria maculans, the causal agent of blackleg
Leptosphaeria maculans, the cause of blackleg, causes significant yield loss in canola crops. In this study, researchers compared pathogen survival and inoculum production of infested residues in both blackleg resistant cultivars and blackleg susceptible herbicide tolerant cultivars.
