The influence of leaf-wetness duration and temperature on infection of Amelanchier alnifolia (saskatoon) by Entomosporium mespili was quantified in controlled-environment studies. Plants were inoculated with a conidial suspension and then subjected to a period of leaf wetness (0, 6, 12, and 24 h), after which they were moved to a growth room set at a fixed temperature (10, 15, 20, 25, and 30°C)...
