Inhaltsangabe

The book A Laboratory Guide for Identification of Plant Pathogenic Fungi is an indispensable resource for educators and students in the fields of botany, forestry, agriculture, vegetable sciences, silviculture, fodder, and pasture science, as well as those studying fungi that infect plants and crops for accurate identification. This comprehensive guide includes 14 chapters that cover fundamental fungal structures such as various types of mycelia, septa, sexual and asexual spores, sexual and asexual fruiting bodies, and specialized fungal structures for fungal genera and species. Additionally, it summarizes the different types of fungal disease symptoms on various plant parts, including the root, collar region, stem and twig, leaves, inflorescence, flower, and seed, along with the fungal genera and species responsible for causing them.

The book also provides information on the morphological characteristics used for fungal identification and the molecular techniques employed in such identification. As a result, this book is a crucial tool for identifying plant pathogenic fungi, and its absence previously hindered the practical training of students in many academic institutions. The availability of this resource will help to overcome this training deficit.
