A major constraint on the optimization of worldwide crop yields is the attack by microbial pathogens. The pressure for movement away from the use of chemicals as a first line of defence towards more environmentally acceptable methods of disease control has led to greater emphasis being placed on the study of cellular and molecular events in host-pathogen interactions. This short, comprehensive text covers specific and important areas in plant pathology and is aimed at advanced undergraduates in the areas of applied biology, botany, plant physiology and the agricultural sciences. It should also prove valuable for postgraduate students entering the field for the first time and who require initial research information and direction to more advanced research material. This book should be of interest to undergraduates and postgraduates in plant pathology, agronomy and crop science.
