Over-summering of wheat stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici) in the California Central valley: A case study

To study the over-summering of wheat stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici) in the California Central Valley (CCV), temperature records from various locations in the CCV during the period 1950-2009 were examined for the occurrence of lethal maximum temperatures for the uredinia and uredini...
