Impacts of changing climate and agronomic factors on fusarium ear blight of wheat in the UK (2012, methodology): “The culture-based assessment method used by Schmale et al. (2006) and Maldonado-Ramirez et al. (2005) did not identify the airborne inoculum source, which could be ascospores, conidia or hyphal fragments, but it did show the presence of inoculum dispersed evenly over the entire region.”
Microbiology and atmospheric processes: research challenges concerning the impact of airborne micro-organisms on the atmosphere and climate (2011, unknown): “On the other hand, for the fungus Gibberella zeae , no differences were observed in air-borne concentrations between the day and night at 60 m above the ground (Maldonado-Ramirez et al., 2005).”
Overview of some recent research developments in fusarium head blight of wheat (2013, methodology): “Data to strengthen this interpretation were supplied by remote-piloted vehicles which sampled air in the planetary boundary layer between 50 m and 1 km above the surface of the earth (Maldonado-Ramirez et al., 2005; Schmale et al., 2006).”
