Description of Plant Pathology 5th Edition (PDF)
Plant Pathology 5th Edition by George N. Agrios is the most popular book for Botanist or plant pathology students, book is available for PDF download. Since the appearance of the 1st edition of Plant Pathology in June 1969, tremendous advances have been made both in the science of plant pathology and in the publishing business. New information published in the monthly plant pathological and related biological journals, as well as in specialized books and annual reviews, was digested and pertinent portions of it were included in each new edition of the book.
The worldwide use of the book, in English or in its several translations, also created a need to describe additional diseases affecting crops important to different parts of the world. There has been, therefore, a continuous need to add at least some additional text and more illustrations to the book with as little increase in the size of the book as possible. Fortunately, through the use of computers, tremendous advances have been made in the publishing business, including paper quality and labor costs and, particularly, in the reproducibility and affordability of color photographs and diagrams.
Plant diseases and plant pathology come alive when illustrated in full color and it has been the author’s dream to have all the figures in color. Add to these advances the interest of the author and of the publishers to spare no effort or expense in the production of this book and you have what we believe is the best book possible for the effective teaching of plant pathology at today’s college level worldwide.
We have invited a group of outstanding microbiologists/ experts to contribute to this Plant Pathology 5th Edition. We believe the contents are accurate and up-to-date. However, we welcome any comments or suggestions that you may have regarding the contents of this Plant Pathology 5th Edition.
