The significance of preventing primary infections resulting from the teleomorph stage of Didymella rabiei was tested in field experiments in 1998 and 2000. Control efficacy was greater and yield and its components were higher in plots where the fungicide difenoconazole had been sprayed in time to protect the plants from infections resulting from airborne ascospores than in plots where sprays were not applied on time. Forty empirical models reflecting the influence of temperature and interrupted wetness on initial maturation of D. rabiei pseudothecia were developed and verified by using data recorded in chickpea fields in 1998. Seven of the models then were validated with data recorded in 1999 and 2000. The following model provided the best predictions: starting at the beginning of the rainy season (October to December), the predictor of the model was assigned one severity value unit when there was a rain event (1 day or more) with ≥10 mm of rain and an average daily temperature (during the rainy days) of ≤15°C. According to the model, pseudothecia mature after accumulation of six severity values and ascospores will be discharged during the following rain. |
