The book has been substantially updated and expanded. The first section summarizes the interaction between plant and pathogen, from the molecule to the population, and describes how diseases are controlled using agronomy, genetics, and chemistry. The second section reflects the massive changes in the phylogenetics of pathogen groups and describes all aspects of pathogenicity by fungi, comycetes, viruses, bacteria, nematodes, and parasitic plants. The new third section provides a primer on the diseases of 23 major crops and plant groups. Building on the legacy work of the original author George Agrios, this new edition continues to be the most comprehensive resource and textbook that professionals, faculties, and students can consult for well-organized, essential information.
