Paperback. This volume is an exhaustive compendium of various methods of detecting fungal pathogens, and diagnosing the diseases caused by them. It is based on an extensive literature survey and is a valuable tool in selecting appropriate investigative techniques. Num Pages: 313 pages, 10 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PSG; PSTL; PSTP; PSVT7. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 235 x 155 x 17. Weight in Grams: 486.
Morphological, biological, biochemical and physiological characteristics have been used for the detection, identification and differentiation of fungal pathogens up to species level. Tests based on biological characteristics are less consistent. Immunoassays have been shown to be effective in detecting fungal pathogens present in plants and environmental samples. Development of monoclonal antibody technology has greatly enhanced the sensitivity and specificity of detection, identification and differentiation of fungal species and varieties/strains. Nucleic acid-based techniques involving hybridization with or amplification of unique DNA have provided results rapidly and reliably. Presentation of a large number of protocols is a unique feature of this volume. ... Read more
