商品描述
The field of Plant Bacteriology/Phytobacteriology in genomics and molecular plant bacteriology as well as the global spread of bacterial plant diseases and the emergence of new bacterial plant pathogens. So, there is a need to integrate the understanding of bacterial taxonomy, genomics and basic plant bacteriology that reflects state-of-the-art knowledge about plant-disease mechanisms. In the present book, the first eight chapters contain general information about bacteria, the classification of plant pathogenic bacteria and the molecular mechanisms of virulence and pathogenesis of phytopathogenic bacteria. The ninth chapter of the book contains a description of 62 specific bacterial diseases of plants. Some of the described diseases, such as bacterial blight of rice, wilt of solanaceous plants, soft rot of fleshy fruits and vegetables, citrus canker, citrus huanglongbing etc., are of international importance and cause huge economic losses to mankind.
- Contains the latest, updated information on plant pathogenic bacteria as of July 2025.
- Presents the classification of the bacteria and associated nomenclature based on Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology, 2nd edition and the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology. Seventy-one genera of bacteria containing plant pathogenic species are described, and their plant pathogenic species are listed.
- Discusses practical and thoroughly tested disease management strategies that would help control the enormous losses caused by these diseases.
- Reviews the role of Type I - VI secretions and peptide- or protein-containing toxins produced by bacterial plant pathogens.
- Briefs about plants and plant products that act as carriers of human enteric bacterial pathogens, emphasizing, for example, the role of seed sprouts as a common vehicle in causing food-borne illness.

植物細菌學/植物病原細菌學在基因組學和分子植物細菌學領域的發展，以及細菌性植物疾病的全球擴散和新型細菌植物病原體的出現，顯示出整合細菌分類學、基因組學和基本植物細菌學的必要性，這些內容反映了有關植物疾病機制的最新知識。在本書中，前八章包含有關細菌的一般資訊、植物病原細菌的分類以及植物病原細菌的毒力和致病機制的分子機制。書中的第九章描述了62種特定的植物細菌疾病。其中一些描述的疾病，如水稻細菌性斑點病、茄科植物的萎蔫病、多汁水果和蔬菜的軟腐病、柑橘癌病、柑橘黃龍病等，具有國際重要性，並對人類造成巨大的經濟損失。
- 包含截至2025年7月的最新更新資訊，關於植物病原細菌。
- 根據《Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology》第2版和《International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology》呈現細菌的分類及相關命名。描述了71個包含植物病原物種的細菌屬，並列出了它們的植物病原物種。
- 討論了實用且經過充分測試的疾病管理策略，這些策略將有助於控制這些疾病造成的巨大損失。
- 回顧了細菌植物病原體所產生的I型至VI型分泌物及含肽或蛋白質的毒素的角色。
- 簡要介紹了作為人類腸道細菌病原體載體的植物和植物產品，強調例如種子芽在引起食源性疾病中的常見角色。

Dr B. S. Thind was Ex-Professor-cum-Head, Department of Plant Pathology, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana. He has 34 years of experience in teaching, research and transfer of technology in the subdiscipline of plant bacteriology. He has conducted research investigations on bacterial blight of rice, bacterial stalk rot of maize, bacterial blight of cowpea, bacterial leaf spot of green gram, bacterial spot of chillies and bacterial soft rot of potatoes. He also acted as Principal Investigator of two ICAR (Indian Council of Agricultural Research)-funded research schemes entitled, "Detection and control of phytopathogenic bacteria from cowpea and mungbean seeds" from 1981 to 1986 and "Perpetuation, variability and control of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, the causal agent of bacterial blight of rice" from 1989 to 1993, and also a DST-funded research scheme entitled "Biological control of bacterial blight, sheath blight, sheath rot and brown leaf spot of rice" from 1999 to 2002. He has also authored a manual entitled Plant Bacteriology and a textbook entitled Phytopathogenic Procaryotes and Plant Diseases, published by Scientific Publishers (India) in 2012 and another book, entitled Phytopathogenic Bacteria and Plant Diseases, published by CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group in 2019. He is a life member of the Indian Phytopathological Society, the Indian Society of Mycology and Plant Pathology, the Indian Science Congress and the Indian Society of Plant Pathologists.
