Plant pathology is the scientific study of plant diseases caused by pathogens and environmental conditions. Plant diseases can have an enormous impact on our lives.Studies of the interactions between plants and their viral, bacterial and fungal pathogens are of major importance in plant and crop production. Advances in modern molecular techniques have benefited directly molecular plant pathology. These techniques enhance our understanding of the organisms themselves and of the complex interactions between them and their host plants and help us to determine compatibility between them. This book provides methods which are vital to the diagnosis of plant diseases and addresses the underlying molecular principles of plant and pathogen interactions. The book will be an indispensable guide for this exciting and fast moving field, both to novices and expert researchers alike and will also be useful to phytopathologists, botanists, horticulturists, and anyone working in agriculture.
