16 Latitude Wilt assessment Wilt foci were counted along transects for each field quarter Longitude

17 Log(V. dahliae DNA (fg)) Log(foci/quarter) Inoculum and wilt in fields Fields

18 Log(foci/quarter) Inoculum is related to wilt in fields Log(V. dahliae DNA (fg))

19 Log(foci/quarter) V. dahliae, Pratylenchus spp., cultivar, and crop age are related to wilt Log(V. dahliae DNA (fg)) Log(Pratylenchus spp./250 g of soil) Cultivars Years in mint

22 Age of mint crop (years) log(pratylenchus spp./ 250 g of soil) Impact of predictors on wilt log(verticillium dahliae/g of soil) Cultivars

23 V. dahliae inside and outside of foci V. dahliae was quantified from inside and outside of wilt foci in 5 foci/field from three fields in WA Ct Values

24 Location relative to focus True positive rate Scale matters! False positive rate Ct Values Accuracy = 0.7 Sensitivity (true positive rate) = 0.7 Specificity (true negative rate) = 0.7

25 Nematodes predict a fungal disease of plants Looks can be deceiving Wilt of mint can be predicted from: Pratylenchus spp., cultivar, crop age, & V. dahliae Scale matters Foundation for predictive tools Some variation has yet to be explained
