Editorial Reviews
Review
“This book provides valuable information on different aspects of the above-given
area through twenty – two chapters, such as diseases and the impact of essential
horticulture crops, as well as their epidemiology, diagnostic procedures, and
creative management practices. Each chapter is intended to give useful information
for academics, practitioners, and policymakers, thereby bridging the gap between
scientific advances and practical applications.
In presenting this collection, we hope to provide stakeholders with the knowledge
they need to protect horticulture output and preserve the sector’s long-term viability
and profitability. This book shows a joint effort to address the difficulties faced by
horticulture crops and secure a healthy, productive future for global agriculture.
We believe that this book is a valuable resource that motivates additional study
and innovation in the fight against horticultural crop diseases.”
