Plant pathology is the study of diseases in plants that are caused by pathogens. It encompasses the studies of pathogen identification, disease etiology, plant disease epidemiology, economic impact, etc. Pathogens that cause diseases in plants are fungi, viruses, bacteria, protozoa, etc. Effector proteins, cell wall-degrading enzymes and toxins are the prominent methods of pathogenic infection. Some of the severe plant diseases include citrus canker, rice blast, soybean cyst nematode, etc. This book discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches of plant pathology. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field, particularly with respect to disease detection and identification. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with botany and agriculture science will benefit alike from this book.
