One Hundred Years of Plant Pathology in India: An Overview

 
S.S. Chahal (Editor) T.S. Thind (Editor) R.K. Khetarpal (Editor)
Synopsis The present volume gives a modest overview of the significant developments in plant pathology during the last one hundred years in our country. Renowned experts have made contributors in their respective fields. The first chapter (Prologue) highlights the status of plant pathology in India before 1905 and sets the stage for an overview of the developments made thereafter. Chapters on significant achievements and current status of knowledge has been contributed by leading experts on mycology, bacteriology, virology and nematology, and also on epidemiological research, fungicide research, biological control, host –plant resistance against pathogens and on the application of biotechnological approaches for management of plant diseases. This covered the major areas of research in plant pathology. Besides, non-conventional chapters encompassing the areas of international co-operation, policy issues and uncommon opportunities are also included along with the role of professional societies in plant pathology in India. The editors are aware of the fact that the volume by no way I a complete account of the vast ocean of information available on various aspects of the subject. However, it is anticipated that the diverse areas covered in this volume would serve as a roadmap for the younger generation of plant pathologists and policy makers alike who have greater challenges ahead to resolve the problems for augmenting production, ensuring biosecurity and facilitating trade under the changing global trade regime.
