Edited by André Drenth and Gert Kema This book explores existing methods for pest/disease diagnosis and identification, current management strategies used to control and/or prevent outbreaks, as well as the development of disease-resistant cultivars and integrated pest and disease management programs. |
By Saul Burdman and Ronald R. Walcott This book provides an up-to-date overview of plant diseases caused by Acidovorax species, addressing taxonomy, epidemiology, diagnosis, and management. |
Edited by M’Barek Fatmi, Ron R. Walcott, and Norman W. Schaad Describes methods for detecting and diagnosing many of the world's most economically significant plant bacterial diseases found in vegetables, cereals, grain, legumes, grasses, and forages. |
Edited by Judith K. Brown Unravel the complexities behind pathogen-vector interactions at the mechanistic, biochemical, cellular-tissue-organ, and functional genomics levels. |
Edited by Nian Wang, Jeffrey B. Jones, George W. Sundin, Frank White, Saskia Hogenhout, Caroline Roper, Leonardo De La Fuente, and Jong Hyun Ham This book, ideal for students and researchers, reviews individual virulence traits and how each pathogen uses different traits to cause some of the most important bacterial diseases in agriculture today. |
By Tom van der Zwet, Noemi Orolaza-Halbrendt, and Wolfgang Zeller This comprehensive review of our scientific knowledge of fire blight, the oldest and most devastating bacterial disease of pomaceous fruit trees is a complete review of the topic. |
By Clarence I. Kado Provides fundamental knowledge every plant scientist and student of plant pathology should know, including important historical events that gave birth to the field as well as its recent advances. Serves as a comprehensive resource. |
Edited by Eugene Nester, Milton P. Gordon, and Allen Kerr This anthology traces the fascinating progress from plant pathology to biotechnology through 38 scientific papers on Agrobacterium, published over the past century. |
Edited by Caitilyn Allen, Philippe Prior, and A. C. Hayward This book, based on the 3rd International Bacterial Wilt Symposium, covers topics ranging from the basic biology of the host-pathogen interaction to applied research, designed to immediately address disease losses in the field. |
Edited by Kerry O. Britton This important book presents a broad spectrum of concerns in nontechnical language to conservation-minded people. |
Edited by Clay S. Griffith, Turner B. Sutton, and Paul D. Peterson Fire Blight: The Foundation of Phytobacteriology tells the story of the exciting first decades of fire blight research. |
Edited by N.W. Schaad, J.B. Jones, and W. Chun Plant pathogenic bacteria identification has seen many advances, most notably polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This book features a list of available PCR primers and an appendix on Molecular Techniques. |
By R. N. Goodman and A. J. Novacky Examines hypersensitive reactions. The historical, biochemical-physiological, ultrastructural, and specific genetic factors implicated in the induction and development of these reactions are also discussed. |
