Description
The goal of plant disease management is to reduce the economic and aesthetic damage caused by plant diseases. Traditionally, this has been called plant disease control, but current social and environmental values deem “control” as being absolute and the term too rigid. More multifaceted approaches to disease management, and integrated disease management, have resulted from this shift in attitude, however. Single, often severe, measures, such as pesticide applications, soil fumigation or burning are no longer in common use. Further, disease management procedures are frequently determined by disease forecasting or disease modelling rather than on either a calendar or prescription basis. In a nutshell, this book covers principles involved in the control of plant diseases and points to research avenues that might lead to improved methods for an environmentally safe control approach in the near future. This volume will definitely serve not only as an excellent reference material but also as a practical guide for teachers, research workers, students and plant pathologists as well.
