Description - Plant Pathology and Plant Pathogens by John A. Lucas

This established textbook continues to provide a comprehensive
introduction to plant diseases and the bacterial, fungal and viral
agents that cause them. Aimed at undergraduate students in both the
biological and agricultural sciences, the book covers all aspects
of plant pathology, from a description of the diseased plant and
the varius pathogens, to the way in which disease epidemics are
caused and are controlled. This new edition has been extensively
revised to reflect recent advances in our understanding of the
intractions between host and pathogens at both the molecular and
cellular levels, highlighting the impact of molecular genetic
techniques on the analysis of host specificity, pathogenecity and
resistance to infection. New chapters on chemical, cultural and
integrated approaches to disease control discuss the topical issues
of disease management.


A thoroughly revised edition of a popular, classic text
authored by a leading expert in the field.

Contains new chapters on disease assessment and disease
management.
