Category : Science

Pages : 703
Book Description
The second edition of Mycorrhiza falls into a time period of excep tionally rapid growth in mycorrhizal research. Therefore the edi tors have been most pleased with the decision of the Springer Verlag to revise the first edition and to incorporate the remarkable advances experienced in the mycorrhizal field. The pace of discovery has been particularly fast at the two poles of biological complexity, the molecular events leading to changes in growth and differentiation, as well as the factors regulating the structure and diversity of natural populations and communities. Therefore the most significant changes introduced in the new edition of this book are found within these topics. Not only were many chapters up dated, but also new chapters have replaced existing ones. The individual decisions have not been easy, since valuable contribu tions had to be sacrificed in favour of new aspects; but the authors hope that a highly topical new edition will be of greatest benefit for a rapidly expanding field of research. We welcome comments and critics from readers. Since it was possible again to find leading scientists as contribu tors, we are confident that this revised second edition will stimulate further progress and contribute to a deeper understanding of advances in the mycorrhizal field. We are grateful to the Springer Verlag, especially Dr. Dieter Czeschlik, for his continued interest and active help. Dr. Maja Hilber-Bodmer and Dr.
Practical Plant Virology

ISBN: 3642720307
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 451
Book Description
Viruses require a special approach to establish their presence in a diseased plant since they are not visible, even under a light microscope. This manual describes in detail a variety of protocols for determining the properties and identity of a virus and its behavior in infected plants. A Springer Lab Manual.
Vectors of Plant Pathogens
Author: Kerry F. HarrisPublisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 1483273326
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 482
Book Description
Vectors of Plant Pathogens is a collection of papers that discusses the interrelationship of plant pathogens with their vectors. This collection deals with the numerous vector groups associated with plant pathogens. One paper describes the biology, feeding behavior and distribution of aphids, leafhoppers, plant hoppers, mealy bugs, whiteflies, psyllids, membracids. Another paper addresses the virus transmission characteristics of the mealy bugs during preliminary fasting or feeding, acquisition access time, post-acquisition fasting or feeding, and the inoculation access time. Other papers also discuss the involvement of insects in transmitting bacterial and fungal pathogens; the authors list unresolved issues such as the role of insects in overwintering of bacterial pathogens or the association of the fungus with a particular vector. One author describes some suspected fungi transmission such as the pea stem necrosis virus, red clover necrotic mosaic virus, and the tomato bushy stunt virus. Another paper examines the fate of plant viruses in mite vectors and convectors particularly the viruses found in wheat, barley, or brome grass. Agriculturists, botanists, and researchers in the field of botany, conservation, and plant genealogy will find this book useful.
Desk Encyclopedia of Plant and Fungal Virology
Author: Marc H.V. van RegenmortelPublisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 012378560X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 633
Book Description
This volume consists of 85 chapters that highlight recent advances in our knowledge of the viruses that infect plants and fungi. It begins with general topics in plant virology including movement of viruses in plants, the transmission of plant viruses by vectors, and the development of virus-resistant transgenic plants. The second section presents an overview of the properties of a selection of 20 well-studied plant viruses, 23 plant virus genera and a few larger groups of plant viruses. The third section, which is abundantly illustrated, highlights the most economically important virus diseases of cereals, legumes, vegetable crops, fruit trees and ornamentals. The last section describes the major groups of viruses that infect fungi. - The most comprehensive single-volume source providing an overview of virology issues related to plant and fungi - Bridges the gap between basic undergraduate texts and specialized reviews - Concise and general overviews of important topics within the field will help in preparation of lectures, writing reports, or drafting grant applications

Plant Viruses As Molecular Pathogens
Author: Jawaid A. KhanPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 570
Book Description
Introductory papers address current principles and practices of plant virus taxonomy. The next section treats aspects of virus transmission and transport. E.g., Khan (National Botanical Research Institute, Lucknow, India) and Dijkstra, a plant virologist formerly at Wageningen Agricultural U. (the Netherlands), contribute papers on the characteristic features of virus transmission by nematodes, fungal vectors, and seeds. Sets of contributions then discuss the molecular biology of RNA and DNA viruses. Coverage of methods in molecular virology, such as novel applications of DNA polymerase (Science journal's 1989 molecule of the year), conclude the volume. Includes supporting illustrations and reference tables. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.
