Food and agriculture is an important component in the development
and survival of civilizations. Around half of the world's
population and their economies are influenced by agricultural farm
production. Plant diseases take as much as a 30 percent toll of the
crop harvest if not managed properly and efficiently. Bacterial
diseases of crop plants are important in plant disease scenarios
worldwide and are observed on all kinds of cultivated and
commercial value plants including cereals, pulses, oilseeds,
fruits, vegetables, cash crops, plantation crops, spices,
ornamentals and flowering plant, forage crop, forest trees, and
lawn grasses. Bacterial diseases are widespread and are difficult
to identify and to control. Few pesticides are available for use in
control, and many plant pathologists are not well trained in the
management of bacterial diseases. Bacterial Diseases of Crop Plants
offers concise information on bacterial diseases of crops, proving
a valuable asset to students, scientists in industry and academia,
farmers, extension workers, and those who deal with crops that are
vulnerable to bacterial diseases. The book contains 13 chapters
featuring bacterial diseases of individual crops and is illustrated
with full color photographs throughout providing amazing
characterization of the diseases. It also includes information on
bacterial diseases that appear on different crops across the
continents, thereby making the content of interest to plant
pathologists around the world. Bacterial diseases are of great
economic concern, and their importance in overall losses caused by
various other pathogens, such as fungi and viruses, is often
undermined in developing countries.
