Fig. 3.

Simulated inoculum interception by resistant and susceptible virtual plants in a cultivar mixture as a function of relative canopy height. Each point corresponds to one simulation with a determined canopy height. The reference was a homogeneous cultivar mixture at the flowering stage, including a susceptible and a resistant cultivar, both of standard plant height (approx. 80 cm, relative height = 1). Canopy height is expressed as a proportion of the reference canopy height.
