Abstract
Abstract Fusiform rust (caused by Cronartium fusiforme Hedgc. and Hunt ex Cumm.) is a major problem—in some instances the limiting factor—in the intensive management of slash (Pinus elliotti Engelm.) and loblolly (Pinus taeda L.) pine throughout much of their natural and planted range. Optimum management requires knowledge of present and future rust incidence for plantations early in their rotation. Presented here are a set of disease progress curves which enable the manager to predict future rust incidence and to adjust present rust incidence to a common age to facilitate comparisons among plantations.
