The Study of Plant Disease Epidemics

ISBN:978-0-89054-505-8

Book Overview

Plant disease epidemics continue to impact a world increasingly concerned with the quantity and quality of food supply. This useful reference and textbook provides a detailed exposition on how to describe, compare, analyze, and predict epidemics of plant disease for the ultimate purposes of developing and testing control strategies and tactics.
