The Downy Mildews - Genetics, Molecular Biology and Control
Author: Aleš LebedaPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1402089732
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Knowledge of downy mildew pathogens and diseases has increased significantly in taxonomy, phylogeny, genetics, molecular biology, host-parasite interactions, ecology, epidemiology and control. The opportunity to update comprehensively the major advances in these areas was created by the 2nd International Symposium on Downy Mildews held in July 2007 at Olomouc (Czech Republic). Keynote contributions from this meeting are published here in 14 chapters that provide the most authoritative and recent analysis of these biotrophic plant pathogens and their interactions with plants. It will be an invaluable resource to students and researchers in plant pathology, mycology, taxonomy, plant biology and crop protection.
The Downy Mildews - Biology, Mechanisms of Resistance and Population Ecology
Author: Ales LebedaPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 9789401784481
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The book is focused on the most recent and significant advances in research on downy mildews and related oomycete pathogens. The emphasis is on the biology of downy mildews, mechanisms of resistance in host- and non-host parasite interactions, population ecology and epidemiology, chemical control and fungicide resistance. The chapters are written by leading international experts on various aspects of downy mildews. All contributions are either comprehensive critical reviews or original research papers, and cover the most relevant and recent topics related to these biotrophic plant pathogens. The recent Special Issue is a continuation of previous one published by Springer in 2008.

Book Description
P. T. N. SPENCER-PHILLIPS Co-ordinator, Downy Mildew Working Group of the International Society for Plant Pathology University of the West of England, Coldharbour Lane, Bristol BS16 1QY, UK Email: [email protected] It is a very great privilege to write the preface to the first specialist book on downy mildews since the major work edited by D. M. Spencer in 1981. The idea for the present publication arose from the Downy Mildew Workshop at the International Congress of Plant Pathology (ICPP) held in Edinburgh in August 1998. Our intention was to invite reviews on selected aspects of downy mildew biology from international authorities, and link these to a series of related short contributions reporting new data. No attempt has been made to cover the breadth of downy mildew research, but we hope that further topics will be included in future volumes, so that this becomes the first of a series following the five year ICPP cycle.

Book Description
Emphasis in this second volume of Advances in Downy Mildew Research is on the biology of compatible interactions, forecasting and epidemiology, host specialisation, genetic variability amongst pathogen populations, novel methods for detection and systematics, and induced resistance. Two chapters focus on the related oomycete Albugo candida, which shares many pathogenic characteristics with the downy mildews and provides a valuable comparative pathosystem. Contributions on specific downy mildews include Bremia lactucae, Peronospora destructor, Peronospora sparsa, Peronospora viciae, Plasmopara halstedii, Plasmopara viticola, Pseudoperonospora cubensis and Sclerospora graminicola. Review chapters on compatibility, forecasting and systematics consider a broader range of downy mildew fungi, and compare them with other oomycete and biotrophic pathogens. The book is relevant to anyone with an interest in these unique biotrophic pathogens, either in their own right as causes of damaging diseases or as model systems for research on host-pathogen interactions. It should be read by: students, teachers and researchers in academic and research institutes; research and development personnel in the agrochemical industries; agricultural and horticultural advisers, and other extension workers.

Book Description
The book “The Plant Mildews” includes 24 chapters. 11 chapters are on downy mildews of various crop plants with 55 downy mildew diseases while 13 chapters are on powdery mildew diseases of various crops with 92 powdery mildew diseases. The mildew diseases around the world included in the book are 147 with detailed information on each mildew disease including pathogen responsible, its host range, geographical distribution, disease symptoms, epidemic and losses, disease cycle, weather parameters and disease forecasting, and disease managements. This is the only book on mildews of crop plants which include both downy mildew and powdery mildew diseases and will be useful for researcher, students, extension workers and farming communities.
