Abstract: 
The scope of LISREL (Linear Structural Relationship) co reveal the effect of complex weather factors on various cereal diseases as measured in field experiments was investigated. The method, a form of path analysis, proved to be an useful analytical tool to identify and estimate the interactions among weather factors, and the resulting effects, on the weekly disease rates of Drechslera teres, Rhynchosporium secalis, Erysiphe graminis and Septoria nodorum on spring and winter forms of spring and winter barley and wheat. A major advantage of LISREL is its ability to unravel effects of latent weather factors, i.e., from variables which cannot be measured directly, or not with ease, and its application in comparative studies. The limitations of the method are discussed. LISREL applied to the above patho-systems showed that the six weather factors analyzed had changing effects on the epidemics with the advance of the growing season of the crops.
