Induced Resistance for Plant Defense A Sustainable Approach to Crop Protection

Dale R. Walters, Adrian C. Newton & Gary D. Lyon

✤✤ As a result of environmental concerns, less agrochemicals and fungicides are used today. More research is needed on the genetic potential of plants for pathogen resistance and the development of induced or acquired resistance as an environmentally safe means of disease control. This title is a timely and comprehensive exploration of this topic ✤✤ Chapters review current knowledge of the agents that can elicit induced resistance, genomics, signalling cascades, mechanisms of defence against pests and pathogens and molecular tools ✤✤ Covers the topical application of inducers for disease control, microbial induction of pathogen resistance, transgenic approaches, pathogen population biology, trade- offs associated with induced resistance and integration of induced resistance in crop protection ✤✤ Concludes with a consideration of socio-economic drivers determining the use of induced resistance, and the future of induced resistance in crop protection Print ISBN: 978-1-118-37183-1 (Cloth) US$229.95 • Oct 2014 • 352PP Online ISBN: 978-1-118-37184-8
