How far and how fast can the ASR pathogen spread?

ASR dispersal is highly dependent on environmental conditions and weather patterns. Enviromental conditions affect ASR spore production. Long-distance dispersal is dependent on wind patterns and weather conditions. Most spores from other rusts travel 20 to 30 miles a day from south to north in the United States. It is expected that ASR could move similarly.
