Dynamics of virus transmission and vector interactions among plant compartments.

The table summarizes the events involved in virus spread and vector behaviour, detailing the flow of individuals between compartments, along with the corresponding rates of each event. Each event is categorized by its type, including inoculation, latency and roguing for plants of variety A or B; Acquisition, recovery, and insect mortality for infectious insect vectors that acquired the virus on either A plants (VA) or B plants (VB). The table summarises the interactions between healthy, latently infected, and infectious plant states, as well as the role of insect vectors in the transmission process. The inoculation rates and are in plant per vector per day, and the acquisition rates and are in vectors per day. All other event rates in the table are expressed per day. The overall insect abundance, F, in the field, assumed constant.
