Beschreibungen/Notizen
We witness unprecedented changes in Earth’s natural and man-made ecosystems. These changes are generated by a number of drivers – human population growth, global trade, climate change, and technology shifts – which are often linked in their evolutions, and compounded in their impacts (Vitousek et al., 1986; Rosen, 2000). Importantly, these drivers of change are not linear in their dynamics, evolve at different speeds, and act upon the diversity of the biosphere through different mechanisms, resulting in heterogeneous impacts (Cassman et al., 2005; Garrett et al., 2011). Agriculture may be seen both as a recipient of these effects as well as a cause of changes in the biosphere. As with any of the interactions at play in an ecosystem, plant disease displays responses to these changes.
