Introduction to Plant Pathology Methods

Description

Plant pathology focuses on managing diseases brought on by nematodes, bacteria, viruses, and fungi. But it wasn't until we understood the pathogens' life cycles and the microbial nature of the diseases that the scientific concepts underlying plant disease control became clear. Plant pathology focuses on managing diseases brought on by nematodes, bacteria, viruses, and fungi. The scientific approach to the issue has produced significant and profitable outcomes, primarily through developing numerous control techniques to resist various crop plant enemies. Plant pathologists are in charge of researching plant diseases, and they look into various topics, such as the organisms and environmental factors that all plants, how these factors cause ailment, how these factors interact with the plant, and how to manage or control plant diseases. Plant pathology and other scien`ces are intimately related, including botany, mycology, microbiology, genetics, chemistry, horticulture, agronomy, and soil science. Plant pathologists integrate and utilise data from several of these sciences to get insights into the genesis of diseases and their control. Students, educators, and researchers in plant pathology, botany, and agricultural sciences will find this book of great use.
