About the Book

Biological Control of Crop Diseases: Recent Advances and Perspectives Part 1: Horticultural Crops, Part 2: Cereals, Pulses, Oilseeds and other Crops presents up-to-date research findings on crop disease management to provide with a single-source reference text for developing a sustainable ecosystem that doesn't depend on harmful and unhealthy agrochemicals. The comprehensive research articles in this book represents the key subjects covered by invited authors. This unique book presents fresh ideas and innovative strategies for finding meaningful solutions to the problems of disease control and provides an excellent source of currently used biocontrol agents (BCA) for management of major crop diseases and their potential use in agricultural crop production in India. It is an invaluable reference resource for academics and extension scientists working the area of crop protection.
