Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Plant Disease Identification and Management presents the fundamentals of plant diseases identification based on symptomology and management focusing mainly on integrated pest management approach. It discusses a variety of techniques for the diagnosis of crop disease, losses due to crop diseases, and theories behind disease management. It describes how society is constraining the possibilities for management of crop diseases by changing the environment; biologically controlling crop diseases; and the epidemiologic and genetic concepts of managing host genes. This book discusses managing diseases through diverse chemical, biological, and physical methods. It highlights climatic factors affecting crops by creating favorable condition for most of the diseases. This book serves as a complete guide for growers, researchers, and graduate students to understand basics of plant disease identification. It explains the disease cycle for respective crops with favorable conditions promoting disease development. It intends to aid growers in managing diseases and help scientists with future research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diseases of Economic Plants A science of Plant Disease was an impossibility until knowledge existed concerning the nature of the parasitic organisms, the fungi and bacteria. The science of Plant Diseases or of Phytopathology was in its early formative period between 1853 and 1870, the very foundations being laid in the pioneer work of Berkeley and De Bary in establishing the parasitism of the fungi, and in Pasteur's fundamental work on Bacteria and Spontaneous Generation. To be sure some of the most conspicuous diseases had long been known by sight. Blight and mildew were referred to in both the Old and the New Testament. Wheat rust was mentioned by Aristotle 350 B.C. and reference to mildew is found in King Lear, Act III, Sc. 4. There was even legislation regarding wheat rust as early as 1760. Yet there was little or no real knowledge of plant diseases in those times, beyond the fact that diseases existed. Following the pioneer publications of Berkeley and De Bary came the more complete treatises of Frank (1880, 1895), Sorauer (1874, 1886, 1906), Kirchner (1890), Tubeuf (1894), and others. It was not until 1873 that plant pathology became a part of instruction in botany, and not until 1875 that special courses in pathology were given in any of the schools of America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diseases and Pests of Cultivated Plants, Vol. 6: Sprays and Spraying The slime-moulds differ from typical fungi chiefly in the body not being formed of hyphae, but, until spore-formation, of a mass of naked protoplasm or living matter, without any containing membrane. As disease-producers they are comparatively unimportant, powdery scab of potatoes and club-root or finger-and-toe of cruciferous plants being the chief diseases due to them. Fungi reproduce by means of minute bodies termed spores, which are, in a sense, comparable to the seeds of higher plants. These spores vary greatly in shape, size, and the manner in which they are produced. They may be spherical, oblong, or thread-like; borne exposed at the tips of special hyphae, or enclosed in sacs (sporangia). Often very special fungus-structures are produced solely with the object of forming and distributing these spores. What we commonly term a "mushroom," for instance, is nothing more than a fructification or reproductive structure, the mycelium or feeding portion of the plant being in the soil - the so-called "spawn." Although spores vary much in size, they are all very minute and easily carried by the wind, rain, insects, etc. Some of the smaller may be little more than 1/25,000 inch in diameter, whilst a very large one might be a hundred times as long by ten times as broad. Often a fungus produces two or more different kinds of spores. The fungus causing apple-scab produces one kind throughout the growing season on the living plant. On the dead leaves, during the winter, a totally different kind develops, to be scattered in the spring. Hence the necessity for knowing the full life-history of the fungus causing a disease, in order to be able to trace back the different infections to their source and take adequate measures against them. Spores which are designed to reproduce the fungus at once are generally enclosed by a very delicate membrane, and usually dry up and die after a short time unless the conditions are right for germination and infection. Resting spores - e.g., for carrying a fungus over winter - are generally thick-walled and resistant to adverse conditions. The method by which a spore germinates to produce a new fungus-plant varies, but generally a delicate hypha (germ-tube) is pushed out, which, if favourably placed with regard to a suitable host-plant, will penetrate into the tissues and develop into a mycelium. A suitable temperature is necessary for this, and, in most cases, a film of moisture such as results from rainfall or dew. This explains why wet weather and moist climates are conducive to epidemics of many fungus-diseases. The whole time between the germination of the spore and the production of new spores from the mycelium so formed may be less than a week, and since the spores are often produced in enormous numbers, it is not difficult to understand the rapidity with which a disease may spread if the conditions are favourable. Bacteria. Bacteria are closely related to the fungi, of which, indeed, they are often considered a group. They differ chiefly in their exceedingly simple structure, each individual being a single minute cell. They multiply (in the case of those causing plant-diseases) by each individual dividing transversely into two, each of which goes on growing until it becomes full-sized, when the process is repeated. Many bacteria (but not those causing plant-diseases) also form spores, but these are of a different type from those of the fungi. The living matter (protoplasm) becomes aggregated together, surrounded by a resistant wall, and enters into a dormant condition. It is a device for resisting unfavourable conditions rather than a means of multiplication. The individuals which result from continued division of one or more original ones may remain together as slimy masses such as are often found on decomposing organic matter. In some cases the individuals remain end to end, forming th."
