Every year we see a remarkable increase in scientific knowledge. We
are learning more each day about the world around us, about the
numerous biological organisms of the biosphere, about the physical
and chemical processes that shaped and continue to change our
planet. The cataloging, retrieval, dissemination, and use of this
new information along with the continued development of new
computer technology provide some of the most challenging problems
in science as we enter the Information Age. With the explosion of
knowledge in science, it is especially important that students in
introductory courses learn not only the basic material of a
subject, but also about the newest developments in that subject.
With this goal in mind, we have prepared a second edition of
Introduction to Plant Diseases: Identification and Management. We
prepared this edition with the same general purpose that we had for
the first edition - to provide practical, up-to-date information
that helps in the successful management of diseases on food, fiber,
and landscape plants for students who do not have a strong
background in the biological sciences. We included new information
on (1) the precise identification of diseases and the pathogens
that cause them, (2) the development of epidemics of plant
diseases, (3) the application of biotechnology in plant pathology,
(4) the use of alternative methods of crop production and disease
management that help protect the environment, and (5) diseases that
have become more important since the first edition was published.
