Abstract

The 22 contributions are: contributions of plant pathology to the biological sciences and industry; E.S. Luttrell - pioneer in plant pathology; impact of molecular characters on systematics of filamentous Ascomycetes; concepts and terminology on plant pest relationships; oak enigma - perspectives from the Texas epidemic; relationship between plant disease severity and yield; foliar bacterial pathogens on leaves; involvement of bacterial polysaccharides in plant pathogenesis; variability in root-knot nematodes related to host plant resistance; transmission of viruses by plant nematodes; biochemical and biophysical aspects of water deficits and the predisposition to disease; disease resistance; active oxygen in plant pathogenesis; pathogen derived resistance to plant viruses; molecular basis of infection and nodulation by rhizobia; clonality in soilborne, plant pathogenic fungi; molecular approaches to manipulation of disease resistance; use of alien genes for the development of disease resistance in wheat; epidemiological approach to disease management through seed technology; movement and fate of genotypes of microorganisms in the environment; remote sensing and image analysis in plant pathology; and plant disease incidence - distributions, heterogeneity and temporal analysis. -S.R.Harris
