Opis

Plant Pathology explores the topic of plant pathology and aligns classic studies and knowledge in the topic with the current state of research. The text is supported by schematic diagrams to reinforce difficult concepts such as the process of disease infection, cell-to-cell recognition, and plant breeding mechanisms used to develop resistant cultivars.
