Mathematical modelling and optimal control of banana black sigatoka disease
In this work, we propose a mathematical pathogen-host model which focused on the epidemiological cycle of banana black leaf streak disease and which takes into account control strategies to reduce the spores production ,this mainly thanks to an differential equations system with time delay in wich, the host dynamics is coupled to that of the fungus ...
