One question that stuck with me early in my PhD was whether the experimental data underpinning wheat stem rust epidemiological models were still fit for purpose.
Our new review digs into the evidence, how it’s used in models, and where the biggest gaps remain.

Here we review environmental data underpinning epidemiological models for wheat stem rust, highlighting gaps that, once addressed, would significantly enhance the predictive power of these tools.
