Modeling the Effects of the Environment and the Host Plant on the Ripe Rot of Grapes, Caused by the <i>Colletotrichum</i> Species

Ripe rot caused by <i>Colletotrichum</i> spp. is a serious threat in many vineyards, and its control relies mainly on the repeated use of fungicides. A mechanistic, dynamic model for the prediction of grape ripe rot epidemics was developed by using information and data from a systematic...

A mechanistic, dynamic model for the prediction of grape ripe rot epidemics was developed by using information and data from a systematic literature review.

The model was validated in 19 epidemics (vineyard × year combinations) between 1980 and 2014 in China, Japan, and the USA.
