Plant Disease Management requires a basic knowledge about the
disease causing organism, whether fungi, bacteria, viruses,
Mycoplasma or any other microorganisms. In this book 'Illustrated
Plant Pathology--Basic Concepts', the authors have covered:
Detailed account of the various pathogenic microorganisms
responsible for causing diseases. Their classification, life cycle,
mode of survival, spread and infection, factors responsible for
epidemics, physiological specialization of pathogens. Disease
surveillance, assessment of disease intensity, methods of disease
control, plant protection chemicals, plant protection appliances
and other aspects, which may go a long way in adopting suitable
measures to combat the diseases. Management of seed-borne, soil
borne and foliar diseases, use of plant products in disease
management and biological approaches in disease management have
also been dealt with. Numerous illustrations have also been given
to make the text easily understandable. Though intended for the
students of Agriculture, the book will be highly useful for the
people working in the Department of agriculture and to the elite
public who are interested in scientific agriculture.
