Description

Gain a deep understanding of plant diseases with this comprehensive guide from Wiley. This resource provides a detailed look at the eleven types of organisms that cause plant disease, covering everything from higher plants to viroids. By examining examples of diseases affecting cash and staple crops, readers can learn about the biological events that have led to significant human catastrophes. The text guides you through essential scientific processes, including serological and molecular techniques used for pathogen diagnosis. You will find information on epidemiology, methods for estimating disease severity, and how these factors impact total crop yields. It also covers practical techniques for limiting inoculum to protect agricultural health. For those interested in the biological mechanics of infection, the later chapters explore how pathogens colonize plants and the development of symptoms. You will also study the biochemical and genetic factors that control these specific events. This book serves as an essential reference for anyone studying soil science, professional horticulture, or plant pathology.
