In this paper, we formulate and analyze a mathematical model to investigate the
transmission dynamics of tomato bacterial wilt disease (TBWD) in Mukono district, Uganda.
We derive the basic reproduction number R 0 and prove the existence of a disease-free
equilibrium point which is globally stable if R 0< 1 and an endemic equilibrium which exists
if R 0> 1. Model parameters are estimated using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)
methods and robustness tested. The model parameters were observed to be identifiable …
In this paper, we formulate and analyze a mathematical model to investigate the transmission dynamics of tomato bacterial wilt disease (TBWD) in Mukono district, Uganda. We derive the basic reproduction number and prove the existence of a disease-free equilibrium point which is globally stable if and an endemic equilibrium which exists if . Model parameters are estimated using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods and robustness tested. The model parameters were observed to be identifiable. Numerical simulations show that soil solarization and sensitization of farmers can help to eliminate the disease in Uganda. A modified tomato bacterial wilt model with control terms is formulated.
