Book Description
Breeding Disease-Resistant Horticultural Crops is a complete and comprehensive resource for understanding the concept of breeding disease resistant crops, especially horticultural crops. Breeders of horticultural crops face distinct challenges that are different from agronomy/row crops, and these crops do not benefit from the vast body of literature available for agronomic crops. This book covers the basic theories that underpin breeding for disease resistance and features extensive real-world examples. Both classical and biotechnical breeding methods are covered, with an emphasis on how these methods are adapted for horticultural species. Presented in a logical flow for the reader, this book addresses historical perspectives and context as it relates to breeding for disease resistance. It highlights treatments of resistance in the context of the phenotype, the genotype, the pathogen, the environment interaction, sources of resistance, and the deployment of resistance to obtain a durable resistance. Explores the definition of horticultural "resistance", how it is inherited, and how resistance can be manipulated through breeding Highlights the importance of the interaction among crops, pathogens, and environmental elements Provides the latest references and insights as a foundation for further research

Plant Breeding for Pest and Disease Resistance
Author: G.E. Russell
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
ISBN: 1483192369
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
Studies in the Agricultural and Food Sciences: Plant Breeding for Pest and Disease Resistance presents a critical review of the development of resistant varieties of plant to pests and diseases. It discusses the economic impact of pests and diseases; the methods of controlling these pests and diseases; and the challenges being faced by a plant breeder. Some of the topics covered in the book are the general principles and methods of breeding for resistance; importance of parasite variability to the plant breeder; methods of testing for resistance; requirements for successful inoculation; production of resistant varieties; and economic importance of fungal diseases; and variability in fungal pathogen. Pathogenic fungi and fungal diseases are also covered. The control of fungal diseases by resistant varieties is discussed. An in-depth analysis of diseases in plants is provided. The characteristics of bacteria and bacterial diseases are also presented. A chapter is devoted to epidemiology of diseases associated with mycoplasma-like organisms and rickettsia-like organisms. The book can provide useful information to farmers, botanists, students, and researchers.

Languages : pt-BR
Pages : 51
Book Description
Breeding of horticulture crops is a relative new activity in Brazil; Most of the cultivars grown in Brazil are imported and do not have the right adaptation to the environmental conditions of the country and lack often resistance against pathogens, which might be not a problem in the country where the cultivar las been selected, but is a maior constraint in Brazil. At the National Horticulture Research Centre five differnet research programmes have been set up on breeding for disease resistance: 1 Potato Leaf Roll Virus (PLRV) and Mosaic Virus (PUY) resistance in potato. 2)Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV) resistance in sweet pepper. 3) TSWV resistance in tomato. 4) Powdery mildew resistance in peas. 5) Powdery mildew resistance in cucumber.
