Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of plant diseases, including pathogens, plant-pathogen interactions, their management, and future perspectives. Plant diseases limit potential crop production and are responsible for considerable losses in agriculture, horticulture and forestry. Our global food production systems are under increasing pressure from global trade, climate change and urbanization. If we could alleviate the losses due to plant diseases, we would be able to produce roughly 20% more food - enough to feed the predicted world population in 2050. Co-authored by a group of international teachers of plant pathology who have collaborated for many years, the book gives expert and seamless coverage. Plant Pathology and Plant Diseases: Addresses major advances in plant-pathogen interactions, classification of plant pathogens, and the methods of managing or controlling disease Is relevant for a global audience; it covers many examples of diseases with an impact worldwide but with an emphasis on disease of particular importance in a temperate context Features over 400 striking figures and colour photographs It is suitable for graduate students and advanced undergraduates studying plant pathology, biology, agriculture and horticulture.

Book Plant Pathology in India

Download or read book Plant Pathology in India written by S.S. Chahal and published by Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book makes a modest attempt to highlight the major achievements. The first chapter highlights the status of plant pathology in India before 1905 and sets the stage for an overview of the developments made in the last 100 years. Chapters on significant achievements and current status of knowledge has been contributed by leading experts on mycology, bacteriology, virology and nematology, and also on epidemiological research, fungicide research, biological control, host plant resistance against pathogens and on the application of biotechnological approaches for management of plant diseases. This covered the major broad areas of research in plant pathology. Besides, non conventional chapters encompassing the areas of international co-operation, policy issues and uncommon opportunities are also included along with the role of professional societies of plant pathology in India. Though the volume by no way is a complete account of the vast ocean of information available on various aspects of the subject, it is anticipated that the diverse areas covered in this volume will serve as a roadmap for the younger generation of plant pathologists and policy makers alike who have greater challenges ahead to resolve the pathological problems for augmenting production, ensuring bio-security and facilitating trade in under the changing global trade regime.

Moller was born in Adelaide, South Australia on August 5, 1936. He obtained his degree in 1959 and an m.s. Degree in 1964 from the University of Adelaide, majoring in plant pathology and horticulture. In 1964, he came to the United States for further graduate study and completed his ph.d. Degree in plant pathology at the University of California, Davis in 1967. Dr. Moller returned to Australia as Senior Horticultural Research Officer in Plant Pathology with the South Australian Department of Agriculture. In the spring of 1970, California beckoned again, and Dr. Moller returned to the University of California in Davis as Extension Plant Pathologist. During time 11 years preceding his untimely death, his accomplishments in applied research and extension work with diseases of grapes and deciduous fruit and nut crops were truly outstanding. In the field of fire blight, Bill is best remembered for his important service as cooroinator ftm ea highly successful Integrated Pest Management (1pm) project in pears that involved a team of basic and applied researchers, extension personnel, pest control advisors, and growers. Combined with significant results from basic research in monitoring Erwinia amzlovora in relation to spring temperatures, the end result was a new and highly effective fire blight management program for California. For all who knew him personally, Bill Moller will always be remembered for his integrity, courage, sincerity, and ffiiendliness. He was an inspiration to students and staff, and a true friend.

Book Leafhopper Vectors and Plant Disease Agents

Download or read book Leafhopper Vectors and Plant Disease Agents written by Karl Maramorosch and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leafhopper Vectors and Plant Disease Agents is the second in a multivolume series on vectors, vector-borne disease agents, and plant disease spread. This text aims to collect findings in leafhopper vector research, to suggest promising frontiers for further research, and to call attention to possible practical applications of understanding of leafhopper-pathogen-plant interactions. This book is organized into five parts. Opening chapters on the taxonomy, bionomics, and worldwide importance of leafhopper and planthopper vectors are appropriately relegated to Parts I and II. Part III focuses on vector-virus interactions of leafhopper-, planthopper-, and aphid-borne viruses and virus-induced, cytopathological changes in vectors. This part also explains the interactions of mycoplasmalike organisms (MLOs) and viruses in dually infected leafhoppers, planthoppers, and plants, as well as the transitory vector-virus interactions. The artificial and aseptic rearing of vectors, microinjection technique, vector tissue culture, and spiroplasmas and its vectors are all covered in Part IV. Part V contains chapters on specific leafhopper-borne viruses and MLOs, leafhopper and planthopper vector control, leafhopper-borne pathogens of corn-stunting diseases, Western X disease, and leafhopper-borne xylem-restricted pathogens. This text will be valuable for students, teachers, and researchers of vector-pathogen-plant relationships. Its in-depth coverage of leafhoppers and planthoppers as vectors makes this book ideally suited as a supplemental text in graduate entomology and plant pathology courses on insect transmission of plant disease agents.
