Plant Fungal Pathogen Interactions Offers insight into the present state of knowledge and research of the interactions of plants and phytopathogenic fungi, with special emphasis on recognition phenomena between plants and fungi, parasitization strategies used by the fungi, the action of phytotoxines, and other detailed aspects of the subject. 2001; 0.56 x 9.50 x 6.34 ; Hardcover; 270 pages |
Biotic Interactions in Plant-Pathogen Associations This book is based on a similarly named meeting in December 1999 organised by the British Society for Plant Pathology, it considers the biology of interactions between host plants and the pathogens that infect them. This important topic has seen some significant advances in the past ten years, especially through the application of molecular techniques, which are extensively covered in this book. 2001; Hardcover; 368 pages |
The Gene-For-Gene Relationship in Plant-Parasite Interactions
Evolving out of Crute's theme for his 1995 presidency of the British Society for Plant Pathology, "the gene-for-gene relationship: from enigma to exploitation,"
this volume presents the revolution alluded to in the subtitle in understanding genetics and its latest application in cloning disease resistant plant genes.
Building upon Mendel's laws and Flor's gene-for-gene hypothesis, this global overview spans: genetic analyses and utilization of resistance; population genetics;
and cellular and molecular biology. While the usual suspects in a plant pathology are investigated (bacterial, fungal, and viral), a chapter on the mammalian immune
system is included as relevant. Also discusses the natural limits and business realities of genetic engineering for plant diseases. Distributed in the US by Oxford
