Fungicidal Activity - Chemical and Biological Approaches to Plant Protection

Informationen zum Autor David H. Hutson and Junshi Miyamoto are the authors of Fungicidal Activity: Chemical and Biological Approaches to Plant Protection, published by Wiley. Klappentext Increasing resistance to established fungicides has stimulated the search for novel fungicides with new modes of action. Environmental concerns now also demand that these have low environmental impact and toxicity. Fungicidal Activity discusses new approaches to fungicide development including biological control and genetic engineering, and takes a global view of the future of fungicidal development. Fungicidal Activity is a volume in the Wiley Series in Agrochemicals and Plant Protection. This series brings together current scientific and regulatory knowledge and perspectives on all aspects of the use of chemicals and biotechnology in agriculture. Zusammenfassung This book covers the current status of fungicide research as well as giving a brief perspective of this field. Its main purpose is to consider the ongoing discovery of new modes of action and approaches for disease control. Problems posed by resistance and by the biological control of fungal diseases will be discussed. Inhaltsverzeichnis Impact of Diseases and Disease Control on Crop Production (H. Dehne& E. Oerke).
