The basic input for crop production, the seed is a complex, biologically dormant entity that can carry pathogens known to cause significant plant diseases. There is a world-wide industry devoted to the production and distribution of disease- and pathogen-free seeds to the farming community. This book provides research scientists with the first single publication to cover the methods and techniques used for the detection of seedborne bacteria, fungi, nematodes, viruses, and viroids.
