6 • Four steps : Apothecia development, then sporulation and a Appressoria and/or Hydrolytic infection
• When apothecia development reaches 100%, when a sporulation event takes place
• Direct infection by an apothecia can result in a Appressoria infection
• Hydrolytic infections occur more often since they require less relative humidity and leaf wetness
• Symptoms on the plants will occur in the near future after 100% infection has occurred, weather dependent
• Synchrony of disease risk to crop stage is extremely important.
