Principles and Practice of Managing Soilborne Plant Pathogens

Booknews

A collection of 14 papers, most from a series of symposia in Montreal in late July and early August 1993, exploring the detection and management by cultural practices of soilborne plant pathogens, and interactions between plant pathogens and microbes in the soil. The keynote addresses cover bacterial diseases, the ecophysiology of nematodes in plants, the cultural management of soilborne fungi, "Trichoderma" and biological control, and the biological control of soilborne pathogens in general.
