The Powdery Mildews
註釋A text comprising 18 chapters, written by international specialists in the powdery mildews, organized into five sections. The first part addresses the taxonomy, genetics, and infection structures of the powdery mildew fungi. Much new nomenclature is used in this section, along with the more familiar names. Research techniques are then covered, followed by a section discussing host-parasite interactions. Epidemiology and population genetics of powdery mildews are next covered, followed by five chapters addressing control methods including breeding for resistance, the development and use of fungicides, alternative controls employing biological agents and other environmental manipulations, and the potential for developing transgenic, mildew resistant plants. Includes a few color illustrations. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
