Produktinformationen zu „Dutch Elm Disease Research “
Dutch elm disease is a significant problem in forestry and horticulture which has proven remarkably difficult to ameliorate. Since the introduction of the Dutch elm disease pathogen to North America, the disease has devastated the elm population of this continent and has been the subject of intensive research. This book summarizes the range of approaches that have been taken to address the disease, and emphasizes the significant progress over the past decade in applying methods from cell and molecular biology. Dutch Elm Disease: Cellular and Molecular Approaches will be of interest to scientists in plant pathology, horticulture, forestry, biological control, and plant breeding.

Autoren-Porträt
Dutch elm disease is a serious affliction of elm trees that was introduced into North America several decades ago and has essentially eliminated the American elm as an important shade tree and source of wood. This book summarizes recent research into Dutch elm disease and emphasizes the novel approaches that are being used to attack the problem by using tissue culture and molecular biology.
