Parameterisation of epidemiological models from small field experiments: a case study of banana bunchy top virus transmission

Renata Retkutė, Bonaventure Aman Omondi, M. M. Soko, Charles Staver, John E. Thomas, Christopher Aidan Gilligan

The paper estimates epidemiological parameters of banana bunchy top virus from small field experiments using a Bayesian framework, showing parameter estimates generalize across regions and identifying key transmission risks.
