Synopsis :

Diseases that afflict wheat, barley, oats, and rye and have global economic impact are described here and shown in full color in various forms and stages. Suggestions for control are offered for use by students and professionals in plant health as well as farmers and other professional growers. This user-friendly atlas features each disease introduced by a color key (gold: ear and grain, green: leaf and stem, brown: stem and base root) for quick information about type of disease, scientific name, sites at which it can affect plants, worldwide geographical occurrence, and related information within the book. 130 full-color plates are also keyed into descriptions of the diseases. For each disease: identification is made and symptoms described; the disease cycle is portrayed, including epidemiological features and the respective form taken by the pathogen in various climates; economic effects on yield and on the ecosystem are discussed, with measures for prevention and control offered; and detailed references cite additional reading.
