Advances in Downy Mildew Research P T N Spencer-phillips Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2002 edition

Marc Notes: Revised conference papers.; Originally published: 2004.; Includes bibliographical references and index.; Advances have been made in downy mildew research. The emphasis of this volume is on evolution and phylogeny, control with chemicals including those that manipulate host plant defences, mechanisms of resistance, virulence and the gene pool of wild relatives of crop plants.
