Laboratory Techniques in Plant Bacteriology

2017 | Natural World

Bacterial diseases of plants occur worldwide and cause substantial economic losses in crops. Very few scientists and other workers are trained to study or control bacterial diseases of plants. This book includes the techniques required to identify and isolate pathogenic bacteria of plants and covers other important topics of bacterial diseases. It contains 41 chapters that cover histology, isolation, culture, genetics, assessments of disease intensities, metabolism, and many other factors that will help scientists in their investigations of bacterial diseases of plants. Many of the chapters present laboratory techniques on these topics.
