Definition of Plant Pathology
Plant Pathology is a branch of biology that studies diseases caused by phytopathogens, including both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.
Plant Pathology
Plant pathology is the study of illnesses brought on by plant pathogens, also called phytopathogens. Nematodes, bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa are some of these pathogens. Phytopathologists are scientists who study plant pathology. Plant diseases can be caused by various pathogens, including both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.
In this article, we will study the Definition and Principles of Plant Pathology, Types of plant pathogens, Fungal pathogens, Bacterial pathogens, Viral Pathogens, nematode pathogens, protozoa, and algae pathogens, Epidemiology of plant diseases, Prevention and Control of Protozoan Diseases and Importance of Plant Pathology.
