Description:
The variance in survival of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum's sclerotia, carpogenic germination (apothecia) as well as Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR) severity (Disease Severity Index (DSI)) on soybean was partitioned among canopy, soil physico-chemistry and microbiology, cultural practices (2 or 3-y-corn rotation/soybean monoculture and mineral fertilization/urban compost), and spatial matrices in two soils. Partial multiple regression was used to partition the individual SSR variables variance while partial canonical redundancy analysis partitioned the DSI-apothecia and apothecia-survival variance. In clay loam, the sclerotial survival and apothecia variance were mainly explained by the spatial structure of soil physico-chemistry while the DSI did not share this spatial structure and was largely explained by the effects of 3-y-corn rotation on canopy and soil, i.e. lower weed biomass, enhanced soybean yield and fewer apothecia were correlated with disease suppressiveness. In sandy loam, the DSI variance was mostly explained by the spatial structure of canopy and physico-chemistry. Disease suppressiveness, by the interaction of 3-y-corn rotation with urban compost, was largely explained by the enhancement of soil properties, i.e. higher aggregate stability, microbial activity and soil solution concentration in exchangeable ions correlated negatively with carpogenic germination. Partitioning the SSR variance among four matrices of spatial and environmental factors allowed for the first time to interpret and quantify the variance of disease development explained by cultural practices in interaction with the main characteristics of this agroecosystem.
