Comprehensive and molecular phytopathology

This book offers a collection of information on successive steps of molecular dialogue between plants and pathogens. It additionally presents data that reflects intrinsic logic of plant-parasite interactions. New findings discussed include: host and non-host resistance, specific and nonspecific elic...
