BLIGHTSIM: A New Potato Late Blight Model Simulating the Response of <i>Phytophthora infestans</i> to Diurnal Temperature and Humidity Fluctuations in Relation to Climate Change

Temperature response curves under diurnal oscillating temperatures differ from those under constant conditions for all stages of the <i>Phytophthora infestans</i> infection cycle on potatoes. We developed a mechanistic model (BLIGHTSIM) with an hourly time step to simulate late blight un...
