The development of documents began in 1998 as a response to the Food Quality Protection Act to ensure the collection of required data for the registration of pesticides. These documents are primary sources for government agencies, growers, crop consultants, and scientific researchers to understand and communicate production practices and issues. The documents include crop settings, priorities, worker activities, production practices, locations, pollinator protection, pests, beneficials, controls (biological, cultural, physical, and chemical), efficacy, resistance management, ecotoxicity, and timelines. Stakeholders can access these documents through the National IPM Database. The database includes functionality to develop and edit documents as well as Application Programming Interfaces to add data to the Crop Profile and Pest Management Strategic Plan documents. Current Application Programming Interface partnerships are with Bugwood and the National Pesticide Information Center. The document creation and Pest Management Strategic Plan workshop process with federal and state regulators, IR-4, state Extension professionals, industry, and grower participants is described. Potential future development of the National IPM Database is to serve as a repository for grower production guides.

It is the aim of our paper to propose a previously understudied aspect of the spread of social epidemics, the role of information in both causing and mitigating social epidemics. In this paper, we ask, can information be harmful, contagious, and a causal factor in social epidemics? In the spread of biological epidemics, the causal agents are biological pathogens such as bacteria or viruses. We propose that in the spread of social epidemics, one of the causal agents is harmful information, which is increasing exponentially in the age of the internet. We ground our idea in the concept of the meme and define the concept of an infopathogen as harmful information that can spread or intensify a social epidemic. Second, we ask, what are the best tools to understand the role of information in the spread of social epidemics? The epidemiological triad that includes a host, agents (and vectors), and the environment is extended into a quad by including information agents. The quad includes the role of information technologies as vectors and the impact of the social environment. The “life cycles” of pathogens in biological epidemics and infopathogens in social epidemics are compared, along with mitigations suggested by the epidemiological quad. Challenges to the theory of infopathogens, including the complexities associated with the spread of memes and the role of behavior in the spread of epidemics are discussed. Implications of the theory including the classification of harmfulness, the freedom of speech, and the treatment of infected individuals are also considered. We believe the application of the epidemiological quad provides insights into social epidemics and potential mitigations. Finally, we stress that infopathogens are only part of social epidemic development; susceptible hosts, a favorable environment, and availability of physical agents are all also required.}, number={1}, journal={Humanities and Social Sciences Communications}, publisher={Springer Science and Business Media LLC}, author={Magarey, Roger D. and Trexler, Christina M.}, year={2020}, month={Oct} } @article{gottwald_taylor_amorim_bergamin-filho_bassanezi_silva_fogliata_fourie_graham_hattingh_et al._2021, title={Probabilistic risk-based model for the assessment of Phyllosticta citricarpa-infected citrus fruit and illicit plant material as pathways for pathogen introduction and establishment}, volume={142}, ISBN={1873-6904}, DOI={10.1016/j.cropro.2020.105521}, abstractNote={Citrus Black Spot (CBS), caused by the ascomycete, Phyllosticta citricarpa, is a fruit, foliar, and twig spotting fungal disease affecting the majority of commercial cultivars of citrus. The disease causes cosmetic lesions, may cause fruit drop and P. citricarpa is considered a quarantine pathogen by some countries, impacting domestic and international trade of citrus fruit. Regulatory requirements affecting fruit trade exist even though there is no documented case of disease spread via infected fruit into previously disease-free areas. To clarify the risk of fruit as a potential pathway for the spread of CBS, we developed a quantitative, probabilistic risk assessment model. The model provides an assessment of all steps in the fruit pathway, including production, packinghouse handling, transportation, export-import distribution channels, and consumer endpoints. The model is stochastic and uses Monte Carlo simulation to assess the risk of P. citricarpa moving through all steps in the pathway. We attempted to use all available literature and information to quantitate risk at each point in the potential pathway and by sequentially linking all steps to determine the overall quantitative risk. In addition, we assessed climatological effects on incidence of diseased fruit at production sites and on fungal reproduction and infection, as well as criteria for establishment at endpoints. We examined ten case studies between exporting and importing locations/countries. Model results indicated fruit to be an epidemiologically insignificant means for CBS spread, even between producing countries where CBS occurs and CBS-free importing countries with disease-conducive climates. We created a second model to examine the introduction of infected plant material from countries where CBS occurs. This model demonstrated significant probability of introduction via such infected material. However, pathogen establishment and disease development was still restricted only to areas with conducive climatological conditions. We created a tool to quantitatively explore the viability of various potential pathways via combinations of CBS-present production sites and corresponding pathway endpoints, including environments conducive and non-conducive to CBS.

Eco‐efficiency is a strategy for sustainably increasing production, while simultaneously decreasing these externalities on ecological systems. Eco‐efficiency is defined as the ratio of production to environmental impacts. It has been widely adopted to improve chemical production, but we investigate the challenges of applying eco‐efficiency to pesticide use. Eco‐efficiency strategies include technological innovation, investment in research and development, improvement of business processes, and accounting for market forces. These components are often part of integrated pest management (IPM) systems that include alternatives to pesticides, but its implementation is often thwarted by commercial realities and technical challenges. We propose the creation and adoption of an eco‐efficiency index for pesticide use so that the broad benefits of eco‐efficient strategies such as IPM can be more readily quantified. We propose an index based upon the ratio of crop yield to a risk quotient (RQ) calculated from pesticide toxicity. Eco‐efficiency is an operational basis for optimizing pest management for sustainability. It naturally favors adoption of IPM and should be considered by regulators, researchers, and practitioners involved in pest management. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry}, number={12}, journal={PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Magarey, Roger D. and Klammer, Sarah S.

We discuss the proposition that alternative business models for crop protection can address these problems by incentivizing and benefiting from efficiency of pesticide use. Currently, business models are not linked to the adoption of IPM and are sometimes at odds with IPM practices. We explore a business model based on the provision of pest management adequacy through services rather than the sale of pesticide products. Specifically, we advocate for establishment of crop protection adequacy standards that would allow a market system to maximize efficiency. Changing some of the relationships between agricultural companies and producers from one based on products to one based on services is an idea worthy of debate and evaluation for improving the efficiency of pest management. Contemporary information technology enhancing monitoring and coordination warrants attention in this debate. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry}, number={11}, journal={PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Chappell, Thomas M. and Magarey, Roger D. and Kurtz, Ryan W. and Trexler, Christina M. and Pallipparambil, Godshen R. and Hain, Ernie F.}, year={2019}, month={Nov}, pages={2865–2872} } @article{magarey_chappell_trexler_pallipparambil_hain_2019, title={Social Ecological System Tools for Improving Crop Pest Management}, volume={10}, ISSN={["2155-7470"]}, DOI={10.1093/jipm/pmz004}, abstractNote={AbstractIntegrated pest management (IPM) is a valuable tool for reducing pesticide use and for pesticide resistance management.

The spread parameter (b) of the power law model, which is an indicator of the distance of the epidemic wave front from an initial focus per unit time, has been found to be approximately 2 for several animal and plant diseases over a wide range of spatial scales under conditions favorable for disease spread. Although disease spread and epidemic expansion can be influenced by several factors, the stability of the parameter b over multiple epidemic years has not been determined. Additionally, the size of the initial epidemic area is expected to be strongly related to the final epidemic extent for epidemics, but the stability of this relationship is also not well established. Here, empirical data of cucurbit downy mildew epidemics collected from 2008 to 2014 were analyzed using a spatio-temporal model of disease spread that incorporates logistic growth in time with a power law function for dispersal. Final epidemic extent ranged from 4.16 ×108 km2 in 2012 to 6.44 ×108 km2 in 2009. Current epidemic extent became significantly associated (P < 0.0332; 0.56 < R2 < 0.99) with final epidemic area beginning near the end of April, with the association increasing monotonically to 1.0 by the end of the epidemic season in July. The position of the epidemic wave-front became exponentially more distant with time, and epidemic velocity increased linearly with distance. Slopes from the temporal and spatial regression models varied with about a 2.5-fold range across epidemic years. Estimates of b varied substantially ranging from 1.51 to 4.16 across epidemic years. We observed a significant b ×time (or distance) interaction (P < 0.05) for epidemic years where data were well described by the power law model. These results suggest that the spread parameter b may not be stable over multiple epidemic years. However, b ≈ 2 may be considered the lower limit of the distance traveled by epidemic wave-fronts for aerially transmitted pathogens that follow a power law dispersal function.}, journal={PEERJ}, author={Ojiambo, Peter S. and Gent, David H. and Mehra, Lucky K. and Christie, David and Magarey, Roger}, year={2017}, month={Jun} } @book{orlandini_magarey_park_sporleder_kroschel_hatfield_prueger_2017, place={New York}, title={Methods of agroclimatology: modeling approaches for pests and diseases}, publisher={John Wiley & Sons, Ltd}, author={Orlandini, S. and Magarey, R.D. and Park, E.W. and Sporleder, M. and Kroschel, J. and Hatfield, J.L. and Prueger, J.H.}, year={2017} } @article{donatelli_magarey_bregaglio_willocquet_whish_savary_2017, title={Modelling the impacts of pests and diseases on agricultural systems}, volume={155}, ISSN={["1873-2267"]}, DOI={10.1016/j.agsy.2017.01.019}, abstractNote={The improvement and application of pest and disease models to analyse and predict yield losses including those due to climate change is still a challenge for the scientific community. Applied modelling of crop diseases and pests has mostly targeted the development of support capabilities to schedule scouting or pesticide applications. There is a need for research to both broaden the scope and evaluate the capabilities of pest and disease models. Key research questions not only involve the assessment of the potential effects of climate change on known pathosystems, but also on new pathogens which could alter the (still incompletely documented) impacts of pests and diseases on agricultural systems. Yield loss data collected in various current environments may no longer represent a adequate reference to develop tactical, decision-oriented, models for plant diseases and pests and their impacts, because of the ongoing changes in climate patterns. Process-based agricultural simulation modelling, on the other hand, appears to represent a viable methodology to estimate the impacts of these potential effects.

In-season disease management is largely dependent on chemical control but its efficiency and cost-effectiveness depends on both the chemistry used and the risk of apothecia formation, germination, and further dispersal of ascospores during susceptible soybean growth stages. Hence, accurate prediction of the S. sclerotiorum apothecial risk during the soybean flowering period could enable farmers to improve in-season SSR management. From 2014 to 2016, apothecial presence or absence was monitored in three irrigated (n = 1,505 plot-level observations) and six nonirrigated (n = 2,361 plot-level observations) field trials located in Iowa (n = 156), Michigan (n = 1,400), and Wisconsin (n = 2,310), for a total of 3,866 plot-level observations. Hourly air temperature, relative humidity, dew point, wind speed, leaf wetness, and rainfall were also monitored continuously, throughout the season, at each location using high-resolution gridded weather data. Logistic regression models were developed for irrigated and nonirrigated conditions using apothecial presence as a binary response variable. Agronomic variables (row width) and weather-related variables (defined as 30-day moving averages, prior to apothecial presence) were tested for their predictive ability. In irrigated soybean fields, apothecial presence was best explained by row width (r = −0.41, P < 0.0001), 30-day moving averages of daily maximum air temperature (r = 0.27, P < 0.0001), and daily maximum relative humidity (r = 0.16, P < 0.05). In nonirrigated fields, apothecial presence was best explained by using moving averages of daily maximum air temperature (r = –0.30, P < 0.0001) and wind speed (r = –0.27, P < 0.0001).

One advantage that rare species have in a community is that they may suffer less from disease — and pathogen pressure increases as a host species becomes more abundant. In a study of a Californian grassland habitat, Ingrid Parker et al. demonstrate that the structure of the whole community also influences exposure to disease. They show that plants suffer more disease when they have evolutionarily close species around them, reflecting the fact that many pathogens can attack several species, and as they move from host to host they tend to favour species that are closely related. The authors develop a model to predict the incidence of disease in different species of plants in natural communities, and successfully predict the degree of disease pressure on newly introduced plant species. They also show that this phylogenetically distant species advantage might contribute to the invasiveness of introduced species. Pathogens play an important part in shaping the structure and dynamics of natural communities, because species are not affected by them equally1,2. A shared goal of ecology and epidemiology is to predict when a species is most vulnerable to disease. A leading hypothesis asserts that the impact of disease should increase with host abundance, producing a ‘rare-species advantage’3,4,5. However, the impact of a pathogen may be decoupled from host abundance, because most pathogens infect more than one species, leading to pathogen spillover onto closely related species6,7. Here we show that the phylogenetic and ecological structure of the surrounding community can be important predictors of disease pressure. We found that the amount of tissue lost to disease increased with the relative abundance of a species across a grassland plant community, and that this rare-species advantage had an additional phylogenetic component: disease pressure was stronger on species with many close relatives. We used a global model of pathogen sharing as a function of relatedness between hosts, which provided a robust predictor of relative disease pressure at the local scale. In our grassland, the total amount of disease was most accurately explained not by the abundance of the focal host alone, but by the abundance of all species in the community weighted by their phylogenetic distance to the host. Furthermore, the model strongly predicted observed disease pressure for 44 novel host species we introduced experimentally to our study site, providing evidence for a mechanism to explain why phylogenetically rare species are more likely to become invasive when introduced8,9. Our results demonstrate how the phylogenetic and ecological structure of communities can have a key role in disease dynamics, with implications for the maintenance of biodiversity, biotic resistance against introduced weeds, and the success of managed plants in agriculture and forestry.}, number={7548}, journal={NATURE}, author={Parker, Ingrid M. and Saunders, Megan and Bontrager, Megan and Weitz, Andrew P. and Hendricks, Rebecca and Magarey, Roger and Suiter, Karl and Gilbert, Gregory S.}, year={2015}, month={Apr}, pages={542-+} } @article{magarey_hong_fourie_christie_miles_schutte_gottwald_2015, title={Prediction of Phyllosticta citricarpa using an hourly infection model and validation with prevalence data from South Africa and Australia}, volume={75}, ISSN={["1873-6904"]}, DOI={10.1016/j.cropro.2015.05.016}, abstractNote={An hourly infection model was used for a risk assessment of citrus black spot (CBS) caused by Phyllosticta citricarpa. The infection model contained a temperature-moisture response function and also included functions to simulate ascospore release and dispersal of pycnidiospores. A validation data set of 18 locations from South Africa and Australia was developed based on locations with known citrus black spot prevalence. An additional 67 sites from Europe and the United States with unknown prevalence were also identified. The model was run for each location with 9 years of hourly weather data from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) database. The infection scores for the sites with known prevalence where ranked and a threshold for suitability in a given year was derived from the average score of the lowest ranked moderate prevalence site. The results of the simulation confirm that locations in Florida were high risk while most locations in California and Europe were not at risk. The European location with the highest risk score was Andravida, Greece which had 67% of years suitable for ascosporic infection but only 11% of years were suitable for pycnidiosporic infection. There were six other sites in Europe that had frequency of years suitable for ascosporic infection greater than 22% including Pontecagnano, Italy; Kekrya, Greece; Reggio Calabria, Italy; Cozzo Spadaro, Italy; Messina, Italy; and Siracusa, Italy. Of these six sites only Reggio Calabria had a frequency of years suitable for pycnidiosporic infection greater than 0%. These six sites are predicted to have prevalence similar or less than Messina, South Africa, i.e. low and occasional. Other sites in Europe would best be described as likely to have no prevalence based on very low simulated scores for both spore types. Although Andravida had a similar risk of infection to moderate locations in South Africa there was a difference in the seasonality of infection periods. The ascosporic infection period score was similar between the two sites, but Andravida had a much lower pycnidiosporic infection score in the middle of the period of fruit susceptibility than Addo, South Africa. In Europe favorable climatic conditions are discontinuous, i.e., there is a low frequency of suitable seasons. This raises doubts about the ability of the pathogen to persist at a location and cause disease loss when favorable seasons reoccur. These results suggest that Europe is less suitable for CBS than suggested by an earlier study produced by the European Food Safety Authority using a similar model. The findings from our model simulations suggest that only a few isolated locations in the extreme south of Europe are likely to have a low to marginal risk of P. citricarpa establishment.}, journal={CROP PROTECTION}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Magarey, Roger D. and Hong, Seung Cheon and Fourie, Paul H. and Christie, David N. and Miles, Andrew K. and Schutte, Gerhardus C. and Gottwald, Timothy R.}, year={2015}, month={Sep}, pages={104–114} } @article{hong_magarey_borchert_vargas_souder_2015, title={Site-specific temporal and spatial validation of a generic plant pest forecast system with observations of Bactrocera dorsalis (oriental fruit fly)}, volume={27}, ISSN={["1314-2488"]}, DOI={10.3897/neobiota.27.5177}, abstractNote={This study introduces a simple generic model, the Generic Pest Forecast System (GPFS), for simulating the relative populations of non-indigenous arthropod pests in space and time.

NAPPFAST, developed for pest risk modelling and mapping, was formerly used to support pest detection, emergency response and risk analysis for the US Department of Agriculture. NAPPFAST employs an internet-based graphical user interface to link weather databases with interactive biological model templates. The weather databases include historical daily weather databases for North America and the world. The templates include degree-days, generic empirical models, infection periods and the Generic Pest Forecast System (GPFS). The GPFS, currently in development, is a model that uses hourly inputs and includes modules for development rate, hot and cold mortality, population and potential damage. In this chapter, three examples illustrate the capabilities of NAPPFAST: (i) pathway analysis for Lymantria dispar asiatica (Asian gypsy moth); (ii) epidemiological modelling for Phytophthora ramorum (the cause of sudden oak death and other plant diseases); and (iii) simple population modelling for Bactrocera dorsalis (oriental fruit fly). One advanced feature of NAPPFAST is cyber-infrastructure that supports the sharing of products and data between modellers and end users. The infrastructure includes tools for managing user access, uploading and correcting geographic coordinates for pest observations, and an interactive geographic information system environment for viewing input data and model products. NAPPFAST was used by the US Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Plant Protection and Quarantine, although access has been granted to government and university cooperators working on risk analysis of invasive alien species.}, journal={Pest risk modelling and mapping for invasive alien species}, publisher={CABI}, author={Magarey, R.

One pathway of concern in North America is the possible spread of forest pests in firewood carried by visitors to campgrounds or recreational facilities. We present a network model depicting the movement of campers and, by extension, potentially infested firewood. We constructed the model from US National Recreation Reservation Service data documenting more than seven million visitor reservations (including visitors from Canada) at campgrounds nationwide. This bi-directional model can be used to identify likely origin and destination locations for a camper-transported pest. To support broad-scale decision making, we used the model to generate summary maps for 48 US states and seven Canadian provinces that depict the most likely origins of campers traveling from outside the target state or province. The maps generally showed one of two basic spatial patterns of out-of-state (or out-of-province) origin risk. In the eastern United States, the riskiest out-of-state origin locations were usually found in a localized region restricted to portions of adjacent states. In the western United States, the riskiest out-of-state origin locations were typically associated with major urban areas located far from the state of interest. A few states and the Canadian provinces showed characteristics of both patterns. These model outputs can guide deployment of resources for surveillance, firewood inspections, or other activities. Significantly, the contrasting map patterns indicate that no single response strategy is appropriate for all states and provinces. If most out-of-state campers are traveling from distant areas, it may be effective to deploy resources at key points along major roads (e.g., interstate highways), since these locations could effectively represent bottlenecks of camper movement. If most campers are from nearby areas, they may have many feasible travel routes, so a more widely distributed deployment may be necessary.}, number={7}, journal={PLOS ONE}, author={Koch, Frank H. and Yemshanov, Denys and Haack, Robert A. and Magarey, Roger D.}, year={2014}, month={Jul} } @misc{luck_campbell_magarey_isard_aurambout_finlay_2013, title={Climate Change and Plant Biosecurity: Implications for Policy}, ISBN={9789400773646 9789400773653}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-7365-3_21}, DOI={10.1007/978-94-007-7365-3_21}, journal={The Handbook of Plant Biosecurity}, publisher={Springer Netherlands}, author={Luck, Jo and Campbell, Ian D. and Magarey, Roger and Isard, Scott and Aurambout, Jean-Philippe and Finlay, Kyla}, year={2013}, month={Oct}, pages={655–691} } @inbook{kalaris_fieselmann_magarey_colunga-garcia_roda_hardie_cogger_hammond_martin_whittle_2013, place={Netherlands}, title={The Role of Surveillance Methods and Technologies in Plant Biosecurity}, ISBN={9789400773646 9789400773653}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-7365-3_11}, DOI={10.1007/978-94-007-7365-3_11}, booktitle={The Handbook of Plant Biosecurity}, publisher={Springer}, author={Kalaris, Tom and Fieselmann, Daniel and Magarey, Roger and Colunga-Garcia, Manuel and Roda, Amy and Hardie, Darryl and Cogger, Naomi and Hammond, Nichole and Martin, P.

Establishing early detection strategies thus becomes an important part of the continuum used to reduce the introduction of invasive species. One part necessary to ensure the success of these strategies is the determination of priority survey areas based on invasion pressure. We used a pathway-centred conceptual model of pest invasion to address these questions: what role does global trade play in invasion pressure of plant ecosystems and how could an understanding of this role be used to enhance early detection strategies? We concluded that the relative level of invasion pressure for destination ecosystems can be influenced by the intensity of pathway usage (import volume and frequency), the number and type of pathways with a similar destination, and the number of different ecological regions that serve as the source for imports to the same destination. As these factors increase, pressure typically intensifies because of increasing a) propagule pressure, b) likelihood of transporting pests with higher intrinsic invasion potential, and c) likelihood of transporting pests into ecosystems with higher invasibility. We used maritime containerized imports of live plants into the contiguous U.S. as a case study to illustrate the practical implications of the model to determine hotspot areas of relative invasion pressure for agricultural and forest ecosystems (two ecosystems with high potential invasibility). Our results illustrated the importance of how a pathway-centred model could be used to highlight potential target areas for early detection strategies for IS. Many of the hotspots in agricultural and forest ecosystems were within major U.S. metropolitan areas. Invasion ecologists can utilize pathway-centred conceptual models to a) better understand the role of human-mediated pathways in pest establishment, b) enhance current methodologies for IS risk analysis, and c) develop strategies for IS early detection-rapid response programs.}, journal={NeoBiota}, publisher={Pensoft Publishers}, author={Colunga-Garcia, Manuel and Haack, Robert and Magarey, Roger and Borchert, Daniel}, year={2013}, month={Sep}, pages={103–118} } @article{koch_yemshanov_magarey_smith_2012, title={Dispersal of Invasive Forest Insects via Recreational Firewood: A Quantitative Analysis}, volume={105}, ISSN={["1938-291X"]}, DOI={10.1603/ec11270}, abstractNote={ABSTRACT Recreational travel is a recognized vector for the spread of invasive species in North America.

Our primary data source was the U.S. National Recreation Reservation Service database, which records camper reservations at >2,500 locations nationwide. For >7 million individual reservations made between 2004 and 2009 (including visits from Canada), we calculated the distance between visitor home address and campground location. We constructed an empirical dispersal kernel (i.e., the probability distribution of the travel distances) from these “origin-destination” data, and then fitted the data with various theoretical distributions. We found the data to be strongly leptokurtic (fat-tailed) and fairly well fit by the unbounded Johnson and lognormal distributions. Most campers (≈53%) traveled <100 km, but ≈10% traveled >500 km (and as far as 5,500 km). Additionally, we examined the impact of geographic region, specific destinations (major national parks), and specific origin locations (major cities) on the shape of the dispersal kernel, and found that mixture distributions (i.e., theoretical distribution functions composed of multiple univariate distributions) may fit better in some circumstances.

We used a propagule-pressure framework to delimit establishment hot spots of a hypothetical generalist EFI in six U.S. urban areas: Chicago, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, New York-Newark, and Seattle. We assessed how urban tree cover and propagule pressure interact to delimit establishment hot spots and compared the location of these hot spots with actual recent U.S. detections of two EFI: the Asian strain of the gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (L.) (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae), and Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae). Using a lattice of 5-km-diameter cells for each urban area, we used the input data (urban tree cover and propagule pressure) to model establishment and Moran's I to delimit hot spots. We used urban population size and the area of commercial-industrial land use as indicators of propagule pressure in the model. Relative establishment of EFI was influenced more by the two propagule pressure indicators than by tree cover. The delimited land use-based hot spots for Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana and New York-Newark encompassed more of the actual detections of L. dispar and A. glabripennis, respectively, than the population-based hot spots. No significant difference occurred between hot spot types for A. glabripennis detections in the Chicago urban area.

The results demonstrated that S. dorsalis could potentially produce up to 18 generations and was likely to survive in the southern and western coastal plains of the United States.

The serious and sometimes irreparable ecological and economic damage of exotic pathogens, such as Cryphonectria parasitica, Ophiostoma novo-ulmi, and Phytophthora ramorum, the causal agents of chestnut blight, Dutch elm disease, and Sudden Oak Death, respectively, are amply documented (1,6,42). An estimate of annual losses for exotic plant pathogens is $21 billion dollars (32). The Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) (Sidebar 1) division within the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA-APHIS) has the goal of safeguarding agriculture and natural resources from the risks associated with the entry, establishment, and spread of exotic pathogens. Two important components of the APHIS-PPQ mission are risk analysis and pest detection. A key goal of the risk analysis program is to identify exotic pest pathways and to assess the risks these exotic pests pose to plants and plant products as well as to the environment. Three types of risk assessments that evaluate the probability of the introduction and establishment of exotic plant pests are pathway analysis, organism pest risk assessment, and commodity risk assessment. The PPQ pest detection program and its state cooperators provide a continuum of pest surveillance, from offshore preclearance programs through port inspections, to surveys in rural and urban sites across the United States. The Center for Plant Health Science and Technology (CPHST) and the Cooperative Agricultural Pest Survey (CAPS) programs are instrumental in APHIS-PPQ’s pest detection programs. CAPS is responsible for supplying a means of detection, documentation, and rapid dissemination of information regarding the survey of regulated significant plant pests and weeds in the United States. The survey information gathered by CAPS is entered into a central database known as National Agricultural Pest Information System (NAPIS). CPHST, headquartered in Raleigh, NC, is a multi-program scientific support organization for PPQ. One way CPHST scientists help facilitate the APHIS-PPQ activities of risk analysis and pest detection is by mapping the potential introduction and establishment of exotic pathogens in the United States. These maps are the result of pathogen-specific information analyses, including climate, pathogen distribution, host distribution, and trade. Given its influence on pest phenology, reproduction, dispersion, and overwintering survival, climate is a critical component for the geographic assessment of potential pathogen distribution. A large number of climate-based risk mapping systems, such as CLIMEX, BIOCLIM, and GARP, have been used for pest risk analysis (3,10,38,44).

The fraction of canopy wet surface area was visually observed on 45 leaves (Wobs), measured using a 15-sensor array (Wsen), and simulated using the SWEB model (Wsim). Both the measurements and visual observations were made in five canopy positions. Observations of wetness included periods of rain, dew and near dew. Overall the SWB model was slightly more effective (r2 = 0.73) than the sensor (r2 = 0.6), although there was substantial variation between sites. Since most applications use surface wetness duration, an additional comparison was based on the Canopy Surface Wetness Duration (CSWD). The mean absolute error (MAE) of the SWEB model varied from 0.7 to 1.5 h at the three sites, while for sensors the MAE varied from 1.1 to 1.9 h. Both SWEB and the sensor performed more poorly in dew than in rain. The sensor did not perform as well as in past studies, possibly because it was validated under a wider range of conditions or because of degradation of the painted surface.

An agrometeorological station was installed outside the crop to collect the variables necessary to feed a LWD model. The simulations were compared both to sensor measurements and to visual observations. The main aims were the verification of the sensor performances in the detection of dew and the analysis of LWD spatial variability inside the crop canopy. The potential of simulation models as an alternative to field instruments was also investigated.

In particular, it is a major variable for plant disease prediction. Surface wetness is commonly measured with electronic sensors but simulation with a surface wetness model is an alternative. Recently, the increased use of interpolation procedures and atmospheric models to produce site-specific weather products has created a greater need for reliable surface wetness models. However, surface wetness models have not been widely used operationally because they are often highly complex, do not simulate both dews and rain or do not adapt well to a new spatial scale or crop. Other models estimate surface wetness in units that are cumbersome to observe in the field. In addition, few models have been calibrated to observed surface wetness over a wide range of atmospheric variables and plant leaf properties under controlled environmental conditions. The objective of this study was to develop a surface wetness model that would be appropriate for operational use in site-specific weather products for grapes. For this purpose, we developed the surface wetness energy balance (SWEB) model based on a 'big leaf'. The SWEB model consists of four sub-modules describing: (i) surface water distribution based on an observed wet fraction; (ii) canopy water budget; (iii) energy balance module based on a combination equation developed by Tanner and Fuchs; (iv) a transfer function based on Bird et al.'s generic transfer coefficient that was previously calibrated to surface wetness under controlled conditions. The SWEB model can be adapted to the physical characteristics of a particular crop by adjusting four plant parameters: leaf area index (LAI), maximum fraction of canopy allowed as wet surface area (Wmax), crop height and maximum water storage. The SWEB model is most sensitive to LAI and Wmax. The SWEB model is close to the required criteria for a suitable surface wetness model including simplicity, utility, scalability, easily observable output units and in addition, it has been calibrated under controlled conditions. The SWEB model was validated in a vineyard and in a companion study, compared to a widely used sensor.

The model is designed primarily for use in forecasting pathogens that do not have extensive epidemiological data. Most existing infection models require a background epidemiological data set, usually including laboratory estimates of infection at multiple temperature and wetness combinations. The model developed in this study can use inputs based on subjective estimates of the cardinal temperatures and the wetness duration requirement. These inputs are available for many pathogens or may be estimated from related pathogens. The model uses a temperature response function which is scaled to the minimum and optimum values of the surface wetness duration requirement. The minimum wetness duration requirement (Wmin) is the number of hours required to produce 20% disease incidence or 5% disease severity on inoculated plant parts at a given temperature. The model was validated with published data from 53 controlled laboratory studies, each with at least four combinations of temperature and wetness. Validation yielded an average correlation coefficient of 0.83 and a root mean square error of 4.9 h, but there was uncertainty about the value of the input parameters for some pathogens. The value of Wminvaried from 1 to 48 h and was relatively uniform for species in the genera Cercospora, Alternaria, and Puccinia but less so for species of Phytophthora, Venturia, and Colletotrichum. Operationally, infection models may use hourly or daily weather inputs. In the case of the former, information also is required to estimate the critical dry-period interruption value, defined as the duration of a dry period at relative humidities <95% that will result in a 50% reduction in disease compared with a continuous wetness period. Pathogens were classified into three groups based on their critical dry-period interruption value.

Many pathogens require the presence of free water on plant organs to move and to start their infective processes. For this reason LWD is extremely significant in the management of crop protection activities and in particular, the successful use of weather-related disease forecasting models. Their operational application is a very important tool for reducing fungicide applications, for environmental safeguarding in high quality production systems, and for reducing the waste of resources and financial losses. Despite the relevance of LWD, no standard has yet been accepted for its measurement. For this reason the use of simulation models, based on agrometeorological variables, represents a valuable alternative to field monitoring. In this work a physical model based on the energy balance was applied for the simulation of LWD on a grapevine (Vitis vinifera). The model, developed in the United States on the cultivars Chardonnay and Concord, and in Australia on Cabernet Franc, was applied for the Sangiovese variety and was adapted for use with agrometeorological data easily available from standard weather stations. The model outputs were compared both with data measured by sensors in the 1995–2003 period and with visual inspections of LWD conducted on vines during 2003.

For both academic research and project management, understanding the benefits and limitations of systems-based software could improve the accuracy of results and enlarge the user audience. A Surface Wetness Energy Balance (SWEB) model for canopy surface wetness has been translated into four software packages and their strengths and weaknesses were compared based on ‘novice’ user interpretations. We found expression-based models such as Simulink and GoldSim with Expressions were able to model the SWEB more accurately; however, stock and flow-based models such as STELLA, Madonna, and GoldSim with Flows provided the user a better conceptual understanding of the ecologic system. Although the original objective of this study was to identify an ‘appropriate’ software package for predicting canopy surface wetness using SWEB, our outcomes suggest that many factors must be considered by the stakeholders when selecting a model because the modeling software becomes part of the model and of the calibration process. These constraints may include user demographics, budget limitations, built-in sensitivity and optimization tools, and the preference of user friendliness vs. computational power. Furthermore, the multitude of closed proprietary software may present a disservice to the modeling community, creating model artifacts that originate somewhere deep inside the undocumented features of the software, and masking the underlying properties of the model.}, number={10}, journal={Environmental Modelling & Software}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Rizzo, D and Mouser, P and Whitney, D and Mark, C and Magarey, R and Voinov, A}, year={2006}, month={Oct}, pages={1491–1502} } @article{magarey_o’hern_royer_el lissy_2005, title={USDA coordinated framework for soybean rust}, volume={95}, number={6}, journal={Phytopathology}, author={Magarey, R.D. and O’Hern, C. and Royer, M. and El Lissy, O.}, year={2005} } @book{magarey_borchert_fowler_2005, place={Raleigh, NC}, title={Weather-based Pest Risk Mapping Project}, institution={NCSU APHIS Plant Pest Forecasting System}, author={Magarey, R. and Borchert, D. and Fowler, G.}, year={2005} } @article{isard_magarey_russo_2004, title={An aerobiological and epidemiological risk assessment for the aerial incursion of soybean rust into the United States}, volume={94}, number={6}, journal={Phytopathology}, author={Isard, S.A. and Magarey, R.D. and Russo, J.M.}, year={2004} } @article{main_keever_isard_magarey_redlin_russo_2004, title={Comparison of two aerobiological approaches for predicting the aerial incursion of soybean rust into the United States}, volume={94}, number={6}, journal={Phytopathology}, author={Main, C.E. and Keever, T. and Isard, S.A. and Magarey, R.D. and Redlin, S.C. and Russo, J.M.}, year={2004}, pages={65} } @book{magarey_keever_main_2004, title={Evaluation of Potential for Atmospheric Transport of Soybean Rust Spores from Roraima, Brazil and Cali, Columbia to the Continental United States}, author={Magarey, Roger and Keever, T. and Main, C.}, year={2004} } @article{kim_seem_zack_magarey_2004, title={Forecasting plant disease from local-scale, high-resolution weather data}, volume={94}, number={6}, journal={Phytopathology}, author={Kim, K.R. and Seem, R.C. and Zack, J. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={2004} } @inproceedings{dalla marta_orlandini_magarey_2004, title={Leaf wetness simulation model and its impact on grapevine downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) forecasting in Tuscany (Italy)}, author={Dalla Marta, A. and Orlandini, S. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={2004} } @book{keever_magarey_2004, title={Review of the Tropical Weather Systems in 2004 and their Potential Impact on the Transport of Soybean Rust Spores to the United States}, author={Keever, T. and Magarey, R.}, year={2004} } @article{magarey_russo_seem_gadoury_2005, title={Surface wetness duration under controlled environmental conditions}, volume={128}, ISSN={0168-1923}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.agrformet.2004.07.017}, DOI={10.1016/j.agrformet.2004.07.017}, abstractNote={Surface wetness is an important variable for forecasting plant disease. It is commonly measured with sensors, but these provide an indirect measurement and there is variability between different makes of sensors. Consequently, there is no standard for surface wetness measurement. The objective of this study was to derive and validate a physically based theoretical definition of surface wetness for both drops and films drying under controlled conditions. The validation compared observations of surface wetness with theoretical simulations for a range of factors: atmospheric variables including temperature, humidity, net radiation and wind speed; plant physical properties including surface wettability, leaf width and thickness; and initial water distribution including drop volume and film thickness. The drying of drops and films was studied in a wind tunnel and a laboratory setting. Surface wetness duration was most sensitive to initial drop volume or film depth, relative humidity and surface wettability in the case of water distributed as drops. Surface wetness duration was relatively insensitive to other atmospheric variables. Water distribution whether drop or film, made a four-fold difference in evaporation rate compared to leaf width, which was unimportant for leaves larger than 3 cm. The observations were compared to the theoretical estimations using a surface energy balance model. The surface energy balance model is based on a combination equation and a generic transfer coefficient. The transfer coefficient is dependent upon whether the water is present as drop or film and is assumed to be independent of leaf width or drop dimension. Considerations of drop geometry are ignored, although the initial wet area must be known. The theoretical understanding of drop and film drying under controlled conditions could potentially be useful in a field scale model of surface wetness. Since all the factors that influence surface wetness can be explicitly defined, such a field scale model has potential to be used as a theoretical standard for surface wetness estimation. Additional research is required to test this model under controlled conditions of condensation.}, number={1-2}, journal={Agricultural and Forest Meteorology}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Magarey, R.D. and Russo, J.M. and Seem, R.C. and Gadoury, D.M.}, year={2005}, month={Jan}, pages={111–122} } @book{isard_main_keever_magarey_redlin_russo_2004, title={Weather based assessment of soybean rust threat to North America: First year report to Aphis}, institution={US Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service}, author={Isard, Scott A. and Main, C.E. and Keever, T. and Magarey, R. and Redlin, S. and Russo, J.M.}, year={2004} } @article{russo_isard_magarey_2004, title={Weather-based simulations of invasive plant pathogens}, volume={94}, number={6}, journal={Phytopathology}, author={Russo, J.M. and Isard, S. and Magarey, R.}, year={2004} } @book{magarey_borchert_2003, title={Pest assessment: Puccinia tritici (Wheat leaf rust)}, author={Magarey, R. and Borchert, D.}, year={2003} } @book{kim_seem_zack_magarey_2003, title={Regeneration of Local Scale, High-Resolution Weather Data and their Application to Plant Disease Forecasting}, author={Kim, Kyu Rang and Seem, R.C. and Zack, J. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={2003} } @book{magarey_borchert_2003, place={Raleigh, NC, USA}, title={Risk assessment: Guignardia citricapra,(Citrus black spot)}, institution={USDA APHIS PPQ CPHST Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory and North Carolina State University}, author={Magarey, R. and Borchert, D.}, year={2003} } @inproceedings{magarey_2002, title={A high resolution atmospheric model for prediction of winter injury and vineyard site selection}, booktitle={Archivo de ordenador: proceedings of the International Symposium on Grapevine Phylloxera Management}, author={Magarey, Roger D.}, year={2002} } @article{magarey_travis_russo_seem_magarey_2002, title={Decision Support Systems: Quenching the Thirst}, volume={86}, ISSN={0191-2917 1943-7692}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1094/pdis.2002.86.1.4}, DOI={10.1094/pdis.2002.86.1.4}, abstractNote={A Decision Support System (DSS) integrates and organizes all types of information required for production decisions (19).

However, these models do not provide specific weather information at the whole-plant level and thus provide only very gross estimates of conditions that affect plant and disease development. Also, climatic change may increase the frequency of extreme events that influence plant production more than changes in daily or monthly averages. One solution is a simulation approach that can scale weather information from the global down to the plant scale. Over the last 4 years, we have been developing methods to hierarchically define current and forecast weather conditions down to the whole-plant level based on nested high-resolution atmospheric (mesoscale) numerical models. Two hierarchical mesoscale model approaches were tested to downscale weather data in a vineyard. The first, known as the Localized Mesoscale Forecast System (LMFS) uses surface databases to 'localize' mesoscale output. The second, known as the Canopy-Mesoscale Forecast System (CMFS), uses a boundary layer model to downscale mesoscale output. To illustrate the utility of this approach we focused on surface wetness duration (SWD), a variable with high spatial and temporal variability. SWD is also a critical variable for prediction of plant disease. Simulations of SWD with on-site input data were compared to those derived from the mesoscale models and to on-site sensors. Forecasts of atmospheric variables by the two systems were compared to on-site observations. Success in this effort leads us to extend this method to GCMs where factors such as temperature, rainfall, relative humidity, and surface wetness can be estimated within plant and crop canopies. We explore the implications of this work on evaluating the assessment of climate change on the risk of plant disease development.}, number={3}, journal={Environmental Pollution}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Seem, R.C. and Magarey, R.D. and Zack, J.W. and Russo, J.M.}, year={2000}, month={Jun}, pages={389–395} } @article{emmett_magarey_magarey_2000, title={Growers can succeed in the fight against powdery mildew}, volume={4}, number={5}, journal={Australian viticulture}, author={Emmett, B. and Magarey, P. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={2000}, pages={32–35} } @article{magarey_magarey_2000, title={More on the downy mildew challenge}, volume={4}, number={6}, journal={Australian viticulture}, author={Magarey, P. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={2000}, pages={22–27} } @inproceedings{magarey_magarey_emmett_2000, title={Principles for managing the foliage diseases of grapevine with low input of pesticides}, booktitle={6th International Congress on Organic Viticulture}, author={Magarey, P.A. and Magarey, R.D. and Emmett, R.W.}, year={2000}, pages={140} } @article{magarey_clancy_magarey_2000, title={The downy mildew challenge}, volume={4}, number={5}, journal={Australian viticulture}, author={Magarey, P. and Clancy, T. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={2000}, pages={38–46} } @phdthesis{magarey_1999, place={Ithaca, NY}, title={A theoretical standard for estimation of surface wetness duration in grape}, school={Cornell University}, author={Magarey, Roger Duncan}, year={1999} } @inbook{magarey_seem_magarey_emmett_rogers_furler_1999, title={New weather forecast technology for Australian grapegrowers}, booktitle={Australian Grapegrower and Winemaker}, author={Magarey, R. and Seem, R. and Magarey, P. and Emmett, B. and Rogers, S. and Furler, G.}, year={1999}, pages={85–94} } @article{gadoury_seem_magarey_emmett_magarey_1997, title={Effects of environment and fungicides on epidemics of grape powdery mildew: considerations for practical model development and disease management}, volume={52}, number={3–4}, journal={Wein-Wissenschaft}, author={Gadoury, D.M. and Seem, R.C. and Magarey, P.A. and Emmett, R. and Magarey, R.}, year={1997}, pages={225–229} } @article{emmett_magarey_magarey_biggins_clarke_1997, title={Strategic management of grapevine powdery mildew (Uncinula necator) in south eastern Australia}, volume={52}, number={3–4}, journal={Wein-Wissenschaft}, author={Emmett, R.W. and Magarey, R.D. and Magarey, P.A. and Biggins, L.T. and Clarke, K.}, year={1997}, pages={203–205} } @article{emmett_magarey_magarey_biggins_clarke_1997, title={The spread of grapevine powdery mildew (Uncinula necator) in south eastern Australia}, volume={52}, number={3–4}, journal={Wein-Wissenschaft}, author={Emmett, R.W. and Magarey, R.D. and Magarey, P.A. and Biggins, L.T. and Clarke, K.}, year={1997}, pages={206–208} } @inbook{emmett_magarey_magarey_1995, title={Black spot}, booktitle={Diseases and pests}, publisher={Winetitles}, author={Emmett, R.W. and Magarey, P.A. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={1995}, pages={25–27} } @inbook{emmett_magarey_magarey_1995, title={Powdery mildew}, booktitle={Diseases and pests}, publisher={Winetitles}, author={Emmett, R.W. and Magarey, P.A. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={1995}, pages={12–16} } @article{magarey_emmett_roberts_1995, title={Residues of Four Fungicides Applied for Control of Grapevine Anthracnose Caused by Sphaceloma Ampelinum in a Budburst to Flowering Spray Program.}, volume={24}, ISSN={0815-3191}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/app9950209}, DOI={10.1071/app9950209}, abstractNote={Four fungicides ziram (Ziram), dichlofluanid (Euparen), fluazinam (Shirlan) and captan (Captan) were applied in a five-spray program from budburst to flowering and a three-spray program from budburst to 20–30 cm shoot length stage in a Sultana vineyard at Irymple, Victoria.

In general, the dernethylation inhibiting fungicides have little potential for control of grapevine anthracnose.}, number={2}, journal={Australasian Plant Pathology}, publisher={Springer Science and Business Media LLC}, author={Magarey, RD and Emmett, RW and Magarey, PA and Franz, PR}, year={1993}, pages={48} } @article{magarey_buchanan_franz_roberts_1993, title={Evaluation of lambdacyhalothrin and deltamethrin trunk treatments for control of Fuller’s rose weevil, Asynonychus cervinus (Boheman)(Coleoptera: Curculionidae), on Citrus}, volume={8}, journal={Plant Protection Quarterly}, author={Magarey, R.D. and Buchanan, G.A. and Franz, P.R. and Roberts, G.S.}, year={1993}, pages={123–123} } @article{magarey_emmett_wachtel_magarey_1993, title={Reducing the Use of Chemicals in Australian Vineyards}, volume={8}, journal={Australian and New Zealand Wine Industry Journal}, author={Magarey, P.A. and Emmett, R.W. and Wachtel, M.F. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={1993}, pages={237} } @article{wicks_magarey_cirami_1993, title={Susceptibility of grapevine cultivars to powdery mildew-Nuriootpa 1991-92}, journal={Australian Grapegrower and Winemaker}, author={Wicks, T.J. and Magarey, R.D. and Cirami, R.M.}, year={1993}, pages={101} } @article{hart_magarey_emmett_magarey_1993, title={Susceptibility of grapevine selections to black spot (anthracnose) Elsinoe ampelina}, journal={Australian Grapegrower and Winemaker}, author={Hart, K.M. and Magarey, R.D. and Emmett, R.W. and Magarey, P.A.}, year={1993}, pages={85} } @article{magarey_wachtel_emmett_magarey_1993, title={The Downy Mildew Season 1992/93}, volume={8}, journal={Australian and New Zealand Wine Industry Journal}, author={Magarey, P.A. and Wachtel, M.F. and Emmett, R.W. and Magarey, R.D.}, year={1993}, pages={234} } @book{magarey_emmett_coffey_1992, place={Department of Agriculture}, title={A Revised Management Program for Grapevine Black Spot}, institution={Mildura, Victoria}, author={Magarey, R.D. and Emmett, R.W. and Coffey, B.E.}, year={1992} } @article{magarey_clarke_madge_buchanan_1992, title={Comparative efficacy of trunk treatments for control of Fuller’s rose weevil, Asynonychus cervinus (Boheman)(Coleoptera: Curculionidae), on citrus}, volume={7}, number={1}, journal={Plant Protection Quarterly}, author={Magarey, R.D. and Clarke, K. and Madge, D.G. and Buchanan, G.A.}, year={1992}, pages={7–9} } @book{magarey_emmett_roberts, title={A Revised Management Program for Grapevine Black Spot}, author={Magarey, R.D. and Emmett, R.W. and Roberts, G.} } @book{magarey_borchert_schlegel, place={Bamboo Plantation Garden Center}, title={Bamboo Plantation Garden Center}, author={Magarey, Roger D. and Borchert, D.M. and Schlegel, J.W.} } @book{records_lapitan_bertram_savary_ficke_garrett_margarey, title={Browse by Subject}, author={Records, A. and Lapitan, N. and Bertram, R. and Savary, S. and Ficke, A. and Garrett, K.A. and Margarey, R.} } @book{chanelli_magarey_borchert_engle, title={Comparison of the observed and predicted number of generations for 21 arthropod pests}, author={Chanelli, S. and Magarey, R. and Borchert, D. and Engle, J.} } @book{magarey_russo_seem, title={Prerliminary documentation for SWEB}, author={Magarey, R.D. and Russo, J.M. and Seem, R.C.} } @book{fowler_magarey, title={Risk Analysis Applications of the NCSU APHIS Plant P t F ti S t (NAPPFAST) Pest Forecasting System (NAPPFAST)}, author={Fowler, Glenn and Magarey, R.} } @book{hart_magarey_emmett_magarey, title={Susceptibility of grapevine selections to black spot (anthracnose) Elsinoe}, journal={A Revised Management Program for Grapevine Black Spot}, author={Hart, Kerryn M. and Magarey, R.D. and Emmett, R.W. and Magarey, P.A.} } @book{mouser_whitney_mark_voinov_rizzo_magarey, title={The comparison of six software packages: formalization, calibration, and analysis}, author={Mouser, P. and Whitney, D. and Mark, C. and Voinov, A. and Rizzo, D. and Magarey, R.} }
