Description
Part of a three-volume set, this volume deals with with pathogenesis and host specificity in plant pathogenic prokaryotes. It covers the mechanism of host specificity and pathogenesis in plant diseases, bringing together all knowledge about plant pathology into one fully comprehensive source. The main aim of the work is to compile, critically analyze and correlate the information available on all aspects of pathogenesis and host specificity in important plant-pathogen systems representing different types of parasitism and symbiotic, mutualistic and antagonistic associations. Each individual volume is available separately or in a three-volume set.
