Extractions: Department of Horticulture Vegetable gardening is the number one hobby in the United States. Keeping a garden healthy and attractive requires attention not only to its size and location but also to the soil, water availability, sunlight and air circulation in the garden. These environmental conditions can determine susceptibility to plant diseases. Diseased plants are unsightly and also detract from the enjoyment and fruits of the hobby.

Extractions: Hurricanes and Emerging Plant Diseases by Nikkita Patel With the hurricane season in full swing, most media attention is focused on its devastating affects on infrastructure and human life. However, another important story relates to how this destructive force can ravage plant health and food security through the spread of plant diseases. For example, gale-force winds, excessive amounts of rain and saturated soils provide favorable conditions for the spread and introduction of pathogens into new areas. Bacterial and fungal diseases tend to increase in severity after hurricanes. Winds twist and break branches, damage leaves and injure fruits. Injuries to plants provide entry sites for pathogens, especially bacteria. Fungal spores are often kicked up from their resting states in the soil and are carried long distances in the weather currents. Predictive models show that they can persist for 48 hours in the air and travel hundreds of miles. Vectors, insects that act as carriers of a pathogen from one plant to another plant, also can be displaced great distances in hurricane conditions and spread plant diseases to distant locales. Leading Factors of Plant Diseases A recent study explored factors that drive plant diseases of cultivated and wild plants, which have increased in incidence, increased in geographical or host plant range, or are newly recognized. A systematic analysis was conducted of seven years of ProMED postings (January 1996-December 2002). ProMED is a global electronic reporting system for outbreaks of emerging infectious diseases and toxins.

Plants, Pathogens, And People: A Web Site To Improve Student Awareness Of Agricu
On our site, plants, pathogens, and People, plant disease epidemics are used ascase studies to illustrate important issues that involve agriculture.
http://www.ispp-itsymposium.org.nz/papers/submiss_7/

Extractions: U.S.A. Introduction Agricultural issues include not only the production of food, feed, and fiber products, but also issues such as food safety, environmental quality, and use of biotechnology. People have to make decisions on these issues, which directly impact their lives. However, in the U.S.A. only two percent of the population is directly involved in production agriculture, so few Americans have the information needed to make these decisions soundly, a problem known as agricultural illiteracy. In order to increase student's understanding of agricultural/science related issues we have developed a World Wide Web site that addresses topics relating to the social impacts of historically important plant diseases. On our site, Plants, Pathogens, and People , plant disease epidemics are used as case studies to illustrate important issues that involve agriculture. These case studies expose undergraduate and high school students to scientific and societal issues relating to agriculture, and through this exposure to increase the students understanding of the agricultural system. Depending on the intent of the instructors who use the materials on this site, the focus can be on the issues and how they pertain to the particular field of study (e.g. biology, history, health), or on the agricultural system itself. The site also gives students a better appreciation for the scientific process and methods of experimentation. Currently the site allows students to explore the topics of late blight and the Irish potato famine, and Dutch elm disease and the decline of the American elm. Additional case studies will be added in the near future.

This Committee will work with plant pathologists worldwide to establish principles (guidelines) for the naming of new plant diseases. Also, where multiple names, sometimes as many as 7 or 8 names, are being used for the one disease, the Committee will undertake discussion aimed at choosing the most appropriate name. The aim is to encourage the use of common names which describe a major symptom of a disease in words which are internationally meaningful. Eventually lists of internationally approved common names of plant diseases will be produced, which will assist authors, editors, quarantine officers and others communicating internationally. These lists will be placed on this ISPP-CCN website. You are invited to comment on the Committees Aims, which include recommended Principles (guidelines) and Working Rules (see the ISPP-CCN website below).

Extractions: Biological Control Milus Rothrock TeBeest Fungal Biology A wide range of research activities are conducted on the biology, ecology, epidemiology, genetics, and molecular biology of economically important fungal plant pathogens. Research strengths include work on diseases caused by Albugo, Colletotrichum, Fusarium, Hypoxylon, Peronospora, Phomopsis, Phytophthora, Puccinia, Pyricularia, Pythium, Rhizoctonia, and Thielaviopsis. Research efforts also are directed at managing numerous fungal diseases on several important crops in Arkansas including cotton, rice, soybean, wheat, corn and sorghum, spinach, tomato, cucurbits, peach and apple. Cartwright Correll Fenn Lee ... Yang Host-Pathogen Interactions Plants exhibit a wide range of responses when they are infected by a pathogen or wounded by an insect. As a defense mechanism, plants often express sets of specific genes and produce their own defense chemicals inducing the plant to become more resistant to subsequent attack. Several laboratories in the department are using advanced molecular techniques to examine the interactions between plants and pests to identify and characterize novel genes expressed after pathogen infection or insect damage. The characterization of plant defenses at the molecular level could ultimately lead to novel strategies for increasing plant resistance to important insects and pathogens.

http://www.caes.state.ct.us/PlantPestHandbookFiles/pphIntroductory/pphdisease.ht

Extractions: Introduction and Historical Impact of Plant Health Problems Plants in landscapes, gardens, production fields, forests, and interiorscapes are subject to a wide variety of problems that threaten their health. These problems can affect the aesthetics of the plant or can pose more serious consequences which result in plant disfigurement, crop loss due to reductions in yield and quality, and plant death. Throughout time, plant diseases have had profound effects on the history of human civilization and culture and plant health problems continue to impact our daily lives. Plant diseases affect food, fiber, and ornamental plants as well as those in natural areas. Notable among these diseases is potato late blight. This disease, caused by Phytophthora infestans , was responsible for widespread epidemics throughout Ireland and Europe in the 1840s. This devastating disease not only resulted in famine, but was also responsible for the emigration of 1.5 million people from Ireland to the United States and Canada. Late blight continues to threaten potato production in many regions of the U.S. as new strains of the fungus develop.

Remember, in addition to knowing these organisms, there are many other knowledge expectations for this exam. Get the complete list of knowledge expectations from DPR. Each pathogen is linked to pages within the UC IPM Web site that contain information and photos to help you identify it and understand the basic biological and management information specified in the knowledge expectations. For some pathogens, a number of links are available. If a pathogen causes disease in several crops, links are listed to the UC IPM Pest Management Guidelines for crops where it is most important. It is important to be aware of pathogens that have a broad host range, although not necessary to learn details of every disease situation. Use the knowledge expectations to determine what information you should focus on. Pathogens which are also problematic in urban situations such as gardens and landscapes are linked to Pest Notes.

Extractions: PLANT PATHOLOGY T hroughout history, loss of crop yields from disease have had severe effects on the human race. There are at least 50,000 diseases of crop plants. New diseases are discovered every year. About 15% of the total U.S. crop production is lost annually to infectious diseases despite improved cultivars and disease control techniques. Damage from disease has not been eliminated. Disease-causing organisms (pathogens) multiply and mutate rapidly. They develop genetic resistance to chemical controls and have the ability to infect new hybrids. Good gardening practices and an understanding of plant pathology are the first line of defense against disease.
