Abstract
The influence of temperature (16-32 C) and duration of moist period (6-96 h) on sporulation of Cercospora carotae was quantified on carrot plants under three types of moisture conditions (leaf wetness, 96% relative humidity [RH], and 96% RH with an initial 12 h of leaf wetness). Sporulation was quantified as the number of spores per lesion and then transformed to proportion of maximum number of spores (PMS). The highest PMS (1.78×10 3 spores/lesion) was obtained at 28 C after 96 h of leaf wetness. The effect of leaf wetness and 96% RH duration on sporulation was similar for most of the temperatures, except that no sporulation was observed at any time at 16 and 32 C for 96% RH []
