Our dependence on healthy vegetable crops as a reliable source of
food transcends all barriers of nation and culture. Consumers now
demand excellent quality from the industry that produces large
volumes of high quality vegetables to be sold locally, regionally
and shipped internationally. The diseases that affect vegetables
compromise such quality and therefore are of great importance to
grower, shipper, marketer, and consumer. This book focuses
primarily on diseases that are caused by pathogens. Chapters
dealing with the general principles of the causes, diagnosis and
control of vegetable crop diseases are followed by crop-based
chapters. Each disease entry includes a brief introduction to the
disease, detailed description of disease symptoms, information on
the pathogen and disease development, and suggestions on how to
manage the problem. Top quality color photos illustrate the book
throughout. This book is useful to a range of professionals
including research and extension plant pathologists; diagnosticians
and plant lab personnel; teachers of agriculture and related
subjects; university students in agriculture and related fields;
commercial farmers, vegetable producers, and farm managers;
agriculturalists in the fields of seed production, vegetable
breeding, agrichemicals, pest control, marketing, and other
subjects; government and regulatory persons dealing with
agriculture; serious gardeners and hobbyists.
