Synopsis

This book offers extensive information on the diseases and pests that afflict fiber crops, resulting in economic losses. It discusses the major diseases and pests that affect these crops, as well as methods to combat them in cultivation. The diseases and pests are thoroughly described, with a focus on the morphological and molecular characteristics of the pathogens and the biology of different insect pests. The book compiles the most recent and relevant knowledge on these topics, derived from a range of scientific discoveries in the field of fiber crop diseases and pests.

The book is organized into eight major chapters, each covering a specific type of fiber crop, except for chapter two which addresses both Mesta (kenaf) and Roselle due to their similarities in disease and pest attacks. Each chapter is further divided into two or three subchapters to discuss different types of diseases and pests separately. This reference book, in textbook format, is designed to provide undergraduate, postgraduate, and research personnel with a deeper understanding of the diseases and pests of nine major fiber crops, including cotton, jute, kenaf, roselle, sunnhemp, sisal, ramie, flax, and hemp. This book will be of great use to plant pathologists, entomologists, agricultural research scientists, and academics.
