Following the successful first edition, this revised and greatly expanded edition Tomato Diseases: Identification, Biology and Control is the definitive work on the diseases and disorders of the tomato. The tomato is the world's most widely produced vegetable. The number of diseases affecting the tomato is enormous: hundreds of bio-aggressors, more

Cet ouvrage est le fruit d'une étude menée par des chercheurs de l'Inra, avec la collaboration de nombreux acteurs professionnels et institutionnels impliqués dans les filières fruits et légumes. Il décrit l'organisation de ces filières en France et en analyse les caractéristiques essentielles : consommation, commercialisation, production, transformation, concurrence internationale. L'accent est mis sur les principales sources de préoccupation à prendre en compte pour permettre à ces filières de poursuivre leur développement dans un contexte de concurrence accrue. Cette étude intéressera aussi bien les organismes scientifiques, techniques ou institutionnels, que les structures professionnelles et les établissements d'enseignement.
Ce livre présente une synthèse des connaissances sur les quelque 160 virus et viroïdes affectant tomate, pomme de terre, piment, aubergine, tabac, pépino, tamarillo, pétunia, datura.... Sont détaillées la gamme d'hôtes, la symptomatologie et l'importance des dégâts, les structures et fonctions du génome, la variabilité et les interactions virus-hôtes, la transmission, l'épidémiologie et la distribution géographique. Sont également développés les progrès récents dans la classification des espèces virales et l'amélioration des méthodes de diagnostic, de détection et de lutte. Cet ouvrage richement illustré, est destiné aux étudiants, enseignants, chercheurs, techniciens, sélectionneurs et pathologistes de terrain.
Although there has been remarkable progress in the detection and identification of micromycetes in recent years, we still resort to empirical methods to obtain a pure culture of a fungus from a soil sample or from an infected root. Some of these methods have been reproduced in this book, just as they were first published in journals. It is for the first time that these methods have been collected in one volume. Regardless, how empirical these methods may be, they are based on some base data which is described in the first part of the book. It can be used to develop other techniques, or for preparing new selective media. The techniques and isolation media for a given fungus are presented in the second part. The species are listed in alphabetical order. Indices are given for easy reference. This concise book is intended for all those who handle soil fungi, whether for theoretical studies or practical applications.
This is a unique and comprehensive guide to identifying and controlling diseases of the tomato plant and fruit, and is designed to enable the readers to diagnose and combat parasitic and non-parasitic diseases. Based on the author’s experience of examining many thousands of samples for growers and advisers, the book uses clear concise text and colour photos of the highest quality to describe the essential features of each disease.
Following the worldwide success of Dr Blancard’s volumes on Tomato Diseases and Cucurbit Diseases, the author and his colleagues have produced a further indispensable tool for the diagnosis, understanding and control of parasitic and non-parasitic diseases of lettuce, chicory and endive. Section One (some 200 pages) contains practical analytical text and over 500 superb colour photos and colour diagrams, and includes systematic cross-referencing between similar-looking conditions, to help lead the reader to the correct diagnosis. Section Two (some 140 pages) consists of Factfiles describing the pathogenic organisms that affect the crops, their biological characteristics and appropriate methods of protection and control. This is an important and lasting resource for growers and crop consultants, for scientists, instructors and students in agriculture, agronomy, biology, horticulture, mycology and plant pathology, and for serious gardeners.
Following the worldwide success of Dr. Blancard's volumes on Tomato Diseases and Cuncurbit Diseases, the author and his colleagues have produced a further indispensable tool for the diagnosis, understanding, and control of parasitic and non-parasitic diseases of lettuce, chicory, and endive. Two sections comprise this essential handbook. The first contains practical analytical text, over 500 color photos and diagrams and includes systematic cross-referencing between similar-looking conditions to help lead the reader to the correct diagnosis. The second section consists of Factfiles describing the pathogenic organisms that affect the crops, their biological charcteristics, and appropriate methods of protection and control. A Color Atlas of Diseases of Lettuce and Related Salad Crops is vital for every scientist, instructor, and student in agriculture, agronomy, biology, horticulture, mycology, and plant pathology, as well as serious gardeners and crop consultants. Over 500 superb large colour photos and diagrams Systematic cross referencing for accurate diagnosis Factfiles of pathogenic organisms for biological characteristics and control 513 color photos, 22 color diagrams
