Title: Fire blight
Description: "This book is the first comprehensive volume for 20 years to address this subject. It is divided into three parts. The first addresses the disease, including its epidemiology, distribution, host range, detection and infection. The second considers the pathogen, including its biochemistry, genetics and pathogenicity. The final part reviews control, including chemical and biological methods, breeding for resistance, the use of transgenic plants and prediction modelling. Written by leading researchers from the USA, Europe and New Zealand, it is a definitive reference for advanced students, research workers and advisors in bacteriology, plant pathology and horticulture."--Jacket.
