Table 2.

Effect of cultivar resistance on predicted number of days after 15 July until the date in spring when the first phoma stem canker is observed and the severity of stem canker at harvest (on 15 July or on predicted harvest date) at Rothamsted, Hertfordshire, UK for winter oilseed rape crops affected with L. maculans for 2020 and 2050 climates under low (LO)- and high (HI)-emission scenarios.
